Poll for chat users and non-chat users

+2
−0

There is a link in the right hand panel (or bottom of the page on mobile) to "join us in chat".

Chat is an entirely optional extra, but I'm curious about one thing, so this question is intended as a simple poll to gather information by voting on answers.

Some people are users of Codidact, but not of chat, while others are users of both. Since Codidact is open source and non-profit, while chat is currently not (being provided by Discord), I can imagine 3 groups:

  • People who use chat.
  • People who do not use chat because they have no interest in chat.
  • People who would be interested in chat but avoid Discord.

Maybe also a 4th group:

  • People who do not use chat because they were not aware of it.

If you are in one of those groups, please upvote the corresponding answer, or add it if it does not yet exist. I'm hoping that answers here will be a single line for voting on, to get an idea of numbers. If you want to discuss details of whether we should have chat or who should provide it, feel free to raise a separate Meta question for that discussion (rather than an answer here).

An upvote on the question, but no answers, suggests at least one person would like to see poll results but does not want to add an answer. I realise that voting allows anonymous contribution to the poll, whereas adding an answer is public. It might also be that others are avoiding adding a one line poll answer for the same reason I am - to avoid the reputation gain for a trivial answer.

Since the poll won't work without answers, I will add any missing answers myself if they have not arrived before the question reaches 5 upvotes. In the meantime, please feel free to add any and all answers yourself so I don't have to feel bad about it. Maybe we need a built in polling mechanism to avoid this reputation awkwardness. Feel free to raise a feature request for that too.
