A discord server with absurd amounts of over emphasised text, making nothing stand out, filled with emojis and broken up into different messages and sections at the exactly worst places for legibility.
No messages are answered in any channel, and you get amazing sense of all of the technology we have to communicate but zero ability to use it.
Speaks to the fact that we apparently need better and new alternatives or make current tools easier to use.
Certain aspects of discord seem to resonate with people (unfortunately...).
Man pages are great as mentioned, but maybe not as accessible to some people. Are there tools to generate more convenient resources (e.g. wikis) from that? Similar to how generating technical documentations from (structured) code comments.
There seems to be some projects that allow indexing of discord. This should be encouraged more https://nextjs-forum.com/ is open sourced on GitHub.
Also stumbled on this the other day https://www.answeroverflow.com/
That’s only microsopically better than just discord. A (shitty, but somehow popular) chat service is not documentation, even if it’s indexed.
Hint: :q!
