I created Discord chat channel for this precise reason but it has its own disadvantages like lack of search facility I have to agree with Hillary , mailing lists is by far the most efficient way of solving problems and is not even any slower than the online chat and far easier for someone to spot your question than in a waterfall of online chat messages. I find it impossible to keep track of what is happening on Slack sometimes and cant be bothered to organise it. On Sun, Jan 15, 2017 at 3:18 PM phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be> wrote:

so it is not a good idea for an open source project, as I feared.
+1. I was concerned from the beginning that our conversations would get more fragmented. I rarely have time to check slack and the mailing list recently seems to be missing quite a bit of deliberation that's happening elsewhere.
Amost all of the chatter happens on Slack. That's a fact. Less friction, more immediate feedback, ability to copy/paste snippets and pictures. Now, letting all of this in a forgetful back hole is a shame.
