- Additional Information (example): I'm the author of Redbean, an open source web server https://redbean.dev It uses a polyglot executable format called APE which I designed. My project has received positive coverage in the media: https://www.theregister.com/2022/06/20/redbean_2_a_singlefil... Sadly we're having trouble with AVs. Could you unflag my release binaries? Thanks!


Thank you


Really cool!


It's super easy, no maintenance, and free.

Every minute spent dealing with a chat server is one less minute working on your project, or spending time with your family.


This is best answer ever, I've always struggled to set up matrix/irc clients, and it always lived on cliff of the edge, I barely was able to use subset of the features.

With discord, I could use those time working on the project!!!


This.

And it saves all the history, which slack puts behind paywall.

Also, it has neat features like conferencing.

Some of the OSS I follow do nice QAs, presentations, etc on Discord, that just didn't happen or was unfriendly.

I've been on Zulip, Matrix, Libera and Freenode before, discord is simply easier for users and admins.


I use it for a desktop file transfer app [0]. I chose Rust because my primary language is Python and I just wanted to learn something new and really different for this project. Go would have been easier, but Rust just feels bullet proof. It's so strict. If it compiles, it works! It's been a very interesting journey.

I've built a p2p file transfer program [0]. All my development experience had been in Python, but I really wanted to try a statically typed, low level language, and decided to give rust a try.

It was hard to get going, and I still only know basics, but everything just works! Typing, borrow checker, the matched results, all of that makes code bullet proof.
