Just joined to #netlabs, which I have forgotten to do, but this was good reminder, thanks!

I was actually meaning to bridge the OS/2 IRC channels into the discord (but of course I'll need permission from the IRC channel managers). Why not have both, I say.

previously had a web client. Slack had both a web client and gates to irc and jabber. Now these gates are gone away, and web client no
more works with OS/2 browsers. telegram web client too. Though, I'm still using Slack via Bitlbee IRC to different IM networks gateway,
which I run on my Linux VPS server. So, I can connect to it with a simple IRC client from OS/2. Besides Slack, Bitlbee has transports
to ICQ, Jabber, Skype, Telegram, Facebook, VK, Twitter, etc. Of course, voice and video calls are unavailable from IRC, but usually text
is sufficient.

Yeah I did use discord on OS/2 via firefox--although, it *really* needs the falkon Qt5 refresh.

Jolly good!

More is MOarRr!

:)

Just cannot see much value in it ... all old-f***s knows IRC and such and for us it's enough ... hard to see some individual who is using blinketi-bling-bling-what-ever-http-protocol-abusing-stuff would suddenly "find" OS/2 / ArcaOS just because of miraculously got interested of it due the discord channel.

But That's just me.

Been doing too much unnecessary what-ever-things in the past ... nowadays I'll take a very close look if the effort is worth of it ...

Yet, I still find spending hours of labour to make something nobody uses nor appreciates :)

Usenet groups and mailing lists and such good ol' thinkies would be something I'd like to see revival and more use.

Kudos to the one who ever made "Warp" @ groups.io .. let's kick that thingie alive, mmmkay?

Martin Iturbide:
Hi Hakuchi.

I made the Warp group: https://groups.io/g/warp
It is more like an experiment, but everybody is free to join and see what comes of it.

Also, if someone would like to have moderation rights, please let me know.

Regards

Update: Corrected, I think I always use "anybody" in the wrong way.

Looks like we got one more subscriber already :D

I'm taking a look at groups.io to see if I'm able to use it, or more specific their API, in one project and of course one searches for OS/2 groups while at it :)

Dave Yeo:
Likely me testing how easy to subscribe it was, it was as easy as sending an email or two.
