Discord
The most realtime and exciting way engage with our geeky community is in our Discord server
!!! question "Eh? What's a Discord? Get off my lawn, young whippersnappers!!" Yeah, I know. I also thought Discord was just for the gamer kids, but it turns out it's great for a geeky community. Why? Let me elucidate ya...
1. Native markdown for code blocks
2. Drag-drop screenshots
3. Costs nothing, no ads
4. Mobile notifications are reliable, individual channels mutable, etc
How do I join the Discord server?
- Create an account
- Join the geek party!
