Community Chat Platform for Connect for Lemmy

Summary

Potential Implementation of a dedicated chat platform for Connect for Lemmy users, either through Discord or Revolt Chat, to foster community engagement, facilitate feature requests, and provide a space for user discussions.


Detailed Description

As a user of Connect for Lemmy, I personally believe that implementing a community chat platform could GREATLY enhance user experience and community engagement.

Two potential options for this feature:

  1. Discord Server:
    • Create an official Discord server for Connect for Lemmy users.
    • Advantages: Widely used, feature-rich, and familiar to many users.

    • Advantages: Aligns with open-source principles, potentially more privacy-focused.

Proposed Functionality

  • Dedicated channels for:
