We are working on a Discord server. If anyone wants to help, or maybe just look around and participate, while away from the forum ;)
Try here https://discord.gg/exGj6whYw7

Forum stays, no worries.

Icon on the left side is nearly invisible. Make it white and not grey.

It's intentional. Dark and mysterious.

I think this a good move. Even though I more prefer good docs... Discord seem to be the things these days and already had to use for some other OSS.

Although I'm not sure about #suggestions-box — do you really need more feature requests, in more places? ;)

Oh I get it, the gap will be filled in when they add Zerotrust Cloudflare tunnel as an options package for all devices.

Forum vs Discord like BBS vs IRC... Discord can be too much noisy if there isn't a lot of channels for specific topics, good for realtime problem solving/collaboration but this forum is also pretty responsive when asking right questions.

I think this is a good addition for MikroTik as long as the forum stays. Discord lends itself well to deep technical discussions/debates that are harder to have in a forum and it's a little more fun on the interaction side (gifs, reactions, ec).

But the forum is still my top choice for technical/support threads that need to be indexed for everyone to be able to search over the long term.

I just joined as @stubarea51 :)

MikroTik Mikro Tip Host a webserver on your router using CONTAINERS! mentions Cloudflare tunnels, so let Druvis know your feelings about it with a comment.
