Chat channels

Please take a moment to read the rules before posting:

  1. Be nice to each other - we're an easygoing bunch but we won't accept bullying, harassment, or bigotry.
  2. Don't spam, demand attention or send unsolicited private messages.
  3. Don't engage in piracy, or share leaked material (general discussion around such topics is fine).
  4. No NSFW content, as this community is open to all ages.

You can find us on Discordopen in new window and IRCopen in new window (Libera Chat). These two services are bridged together, so take your pick!
