Thanks for the feedback. We've considered this (Discord) and/or Discourse, but the concern is that we'd lose a lot of users in the transition.
I've also found discussions in Discord to be a little bit of a mess. Is there a software Discord that you particularly like?

Yeah, I agree that the Discord search feature is not the best, but at least if you fight a little bit you can find it, on this Slack after 90 days everything is lost.
Discourse is a great alternative for a reasonable price. I really like how it works on https://community.home-assistant.io/

Thanks for the reply! We do archive/anonymize past convos here: https://linen.growthbook.io/ Still not as good, though, as something like Discourse.
Also, are you a fellow HA fan?

yes I am!, I set up my entire home automation on Home Assistant, I highly recommend it if someone is starting with automation (and run everything locally -zigbee/thread or z-wave-, to avoid the laggy cloud)

oh wow, that linen search is even worse than Discord, I've tried searching something, and when it founds a word in a reply, there is no way to go to the parent comment or going to the comment in the channel. homer disappear
