Hey what do you think of moving into discord?

Why?

I’ve simply preferred the forum’s format because it creates better discussion. Discord may be more favourable if we’re sharing the same link to a game.

I was suggesting creating a discord because i think its more organized

There are certainly pros and cons to both. Voice chats are easier on discord. But a little bit more messy to manage threads if you create lots of them.

Would have to do a single “season thread” for it rather than a separate one for each season. Probably a “match day” thread instead of one for every single game. It could be pretty good. But the format would just have to be adjusted.

We would probably lose history as well. I find Discord more clunky to be honest. It’s popular because it is free and somewhat simple to set up. I created a discord for LA Liga, but never promoted it.

I am a fan of Discord myself, I think it helps to nurture discussion, it’s more accessible, and has features such as audio and video calls and streaming the games to potentially watch together.

What do you mean? We would never lose history we can look back into 2022 chats if you search for them in the browse functionality

Not really it would be pretty much the same as here but the pros would be that we could do a main channel to discuss the season and then we could create a thread just for that match for example Osasusa vs Sevilla. The other advantage would be we could stream the matches and in the end we could discuss them!

It also wouldn’tlog me out every time I get off safari lol. I like discord. But I can see the benefits to both. I think more discussions could happen in real time on there compared to here

We can do the same thing here with Categories, but it seems a bit of a waste.

As for the history (what I’m referring to is porting Discourse to Discord).

Discord is free/ but I don’t know if it’s worth the effort for minimal gain (debatable).
