Yeah, I don't get it either. When you think about it, unless you're in a workgroup, and you're dealing with immediacies that have zero long term importance and would contribute zilch to a knowledge base, "chatrooms" like Discord are a total waste of time! In my opinion, of course. Look no further than Github to see why I think that, and how it represents the opposite. Why does GitHub exist? To store key information that is valuable and easily accessible. So we have the opposite in Github. Discord is for total crap that has no lasting value (in general), and a place like Github, well, it's a knowledge base, and has immense value, and is certainly worth the time. Why mention those two extremes? Because HIVE is somewhere in between. Imagine the value added in things like HowTo write-ups, and personal profiles for witnesses, and, hey, what about Witness Server setup docs, and things like that? Instead of wasting away the day on Discord? Those are just the most obvious examples, of things that would add lasting value, not just to HIVE, but to everyone's very life! And they just piss their life away instead?
Like I said, I don't get it either.
(Nobody take this personally, please, I've never been on Discord, so I have no idea who you are, and, given such, it would thus be impossible to be directing this at anyone in particular. 😉 )
Honestly, that is probably the most beautifully crafted rant I've ever read haha! But I agree with what you said, pretty much hit every nail on the head there!
