Right, there is IRC as well. But as Discord this sometimes got really distracted and chatty. Mail is still easy to handle and to search. And everybody has it.

And I agree to Jim, it is self-fulfilling … 😉

Betreff: Re: [ripe-list] The Future of Discussion Lists

there used to be, and i assume still are, irc channels where net ops
hang out.  that no one here mentions them may be a clue.

one issue may be scale.  a chat medium with a dozen or so folk is
viable.  we have a slack with a small cabal who admin a few pops, and
it works well.  a chat with a thousand net ops would likely have volume
and s:n to deter most folk execpt the underemployed.  heck, this list
often causes me to use thread-delete.
