    Yeah, I assume they use AWS for end to end encryption, so not the end of the world, but goes to show how fucked up the internet has become, when a service hosts a third of the web something has gone terribly wrong 😅

      Yea, it’s the end of the world with Signal.

      Having such a dependcy just exposes yet another way their story doesn’t add up, like dropping SMS support because of engineering costs. Apparently, SMS is so hard to do there are free SMS apps.

      I can’t trust them at this point.

      And how does E2E require a middleman?

        Who told you it was because of “engineering costs”?

        I mean, I don’t use it so I can’t really say much on the topic, when looking into it yesterday I found this article signal.org/blog/signal-is-expensive/ which kinda goes through some of the stack they use, and in all fairness they do mention aws in the mix, so it’s not like they were keeping it hidden or anything, it’d be valuable for a company who values privacy so much to be a little more upfront on what’s used for what but as you’re probably well aware we don’t - and never will - live in a perfect world do we haha

  Hey some folks responded here which is great! For me, I think wiki and tracker are perfect like someone else mentioned, because a lot of folks without accounts can still access the knowledge created. The hard part is moderating of course. I’m not sure there is a perfect solution.

  Ultimately, you’re producing something cool for the community and you get to set the terms for that; if discord is easy and sustainable, I prefer that to you doing anything else that isn’t sustainable to see the project through as long and vibrantly as you can. So in that sense just choose what makes sense.

  So in short: do what makes sense for you and if one of the alternatives listed (maybe wiki it seems? That would be cool with me) works then that’s great!

  I guess I’ll also plug forgejo or codeberg at this time haha

    Hey thank you so very much!

    Yeah, you said it best! I take all suggestions on board but ultimately I won’t do anything that is to my detriment, between work and family (with two very very young kids) I have little time to spare haha my precious evenings should go to fun coding and not admin, I do enough of that at work as is lol

    Still getting used to the layout here, feel like I am missing a lot of replies, but yeah, wiki seems to be a very manageable solution for now, GitHub wiki is what I’m leaning towards :)

  I hear there’s this new thing called PieFed that’s pretty cool…

  A ticket tracker and a wiki!

  Else all the institutional knowledge about your software that your users are adding too vanishes forever into a black box. And that’d be a dang pity

  • fccview@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Yes! I am absolutely working on a wiki! Release notes are very detailed so it’s easy to track progress scrolling through them on GitHub (I do this for work too, so I am fairly organised with that)

    I’ll add a wiki to the official site once I’m done building it, there is a help button within the app itself with some knowledge base on key features ♥️

      Have you thought about migrating or mirroring the code from github to codeberg?

      source
    • WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      FYI the github repo can also have a wiki

      source

      • fccview@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        That is actually such a good point 🤦‍♂️

        Sometimes I tend to reinvent the wheel, I’ll probably enable it and the community can help out document stuff, duh 🤦‍♂️ thank you

  Matrix is generally very nice for chat, and Discourse for forums.
