N@uBlue Members In the project management thread, I saw folks were giving feedback about discord. I definitely agree there is room for improvement.
I had a couple of ideas already, but I wanted to get feedback on them:
I had a couple of ideas already, but I wanted to get feedback on them:
- Creating regularly scheduled events where we can come together as a community. Could we just use the default events option or is that not advanced enough for what we need?
- Folks were talking about bots. We already have one for moderation, so that is covered. Are there other things you'd like to see that bots could improve?
- I feel like the voice channels are a bit confusing. We have several duplicates like stage and tty. Do we just need to remove those?
- There is a leftover kinoite channel in /var/home. Should we just delete that?
- We have a single posting channel for bazzite-help. Do we think it would be helpful to have a separate one to field bluefin questions and guide folks to post there?
- Would there be interest in hooking up the discord to Github to do chat ops?
J+1 to everything but 5, people can use the forum or github for that for bluefin.
JI think for 4 it's because there was no aurora and people use that for kinoite-main, no posts in almost 10 days, I'd archive it.
EAgree with Jorge on all counts. 6 sounds a little chaotic though
J6 would save us a ton of time,
/build everything
Xabout 4, please never delete channels, discord search can be used for finding things, archiving is enough
Nsomeone will need to show me how to archive.
MYeah we hadn't merged in Aurora when we did the previous cleanup or had just merged it.
Aurora is our offering.
I think stage can be removed. TTY should be our voice chat for dev. Bazzite channels should be the game chats.

EAh. I read it more as integrating discussions/issues between the two. But that sounds amazing
Jin hindsight we should have just renamed kinoite to aurora
MYeah....
NWe have Maintainer Chat.
J/build bazziteThen yeah get rid of excess voice chats
N@Skynet uses webhooks I believe to get notifications for all of the stuff in his github to go to his own discord.
J:vegeta: : Jorge just forced merged! I will not tolerate this insolence!
Jor whatever
Jyeah I use the github channel here all the time
Xremove "send message" perm from non-mods, send a final "archiving this channel because..." message, and move the channel to it's own category at the bottom of the list
Noh I see, so it's still visible, it's not nuked.
JFedora's discord has a nice feature in their showcase that forces people to thread, so the root is just screenshots and each discussion is neatly threaded per screenshot, that'd be an awesome thing to set up
NI can create an archive category at the bottom.
SYeah, it's a webhook. Just google "github discord webhook" and there's instructions
NThat's probably something that is very easy to do.
Xyeah r/unixporn discord has that too, that would be very nice
NI'll add that to the list.
Jwe have the generic github app, it's in /var/log, #
ublue-os
ublue-osNthat's right!
NSince I've got like 6 things and we've got some concensus, I'm going to create some github issues opened for each one.
Jok so you don't need an issue for each one
Jyou can just do it, keep it light
Nfair enough.
Nsome of these will take more work than others.
NI could just create one issue called Discord Improvements for tracking purposes.
Jyeah no need to clutter the issues with discord stuff, if it's a discord issue we can just keep them here
Jbut up to you
NI think one concise issue will be good. It's helpful for me to keep track of stuff on the project board.
NCurrently I have a google tasks list that I want to get on the project board.
NWhat kind of events would folks be interested in attending? Game Nights? Hack Nights? Just general meetup?
Nthese will obviously be open to everyone in the community.
MAll of the above. + Any cool thing you would like to show off
MSince ultimately people should be doing cool things now they don't have to worry about the OS
NWould be cool to allow organizers to create events for different types of clubs and such.
NI'll start with Game Nights and Hack Nights and kinda go from there.
Ndumb thought. Should be force threading on #
ublue-dev ?
ublue-dev ?Nor is that going too far?
MActually would be good
MEhhh
MI think we should really be better at policing ourselves
NI'm kinda mid about it. On one hand, sometimes you don't know exactly the topic you want to talk about and it's helpful to hash it out a bit.
