That’s unfortunate.
If you would like to continue to get notifications regarding Using Clang, you must do the following:
This seems like a mistake. Discord is pretty good for tight communities where everyone wants to know about everything that’s going on, and don’t need to refer back to old information. I use it for that.
It’s a great deal less useful for a large and loose community, where the individual members have questions that aren’t particularly related to each other.
Cfe-users is the latter kind. With it as a mailing list, I can just mark mails read each morning, and search the accumulated mails when I have a question. That lets me use my own client software, set up for my own accessibility needs.
With cfe-users as part of a Discord, I’m limited to Discord’s search, which isn’t very good, and I have a lot more stuff to read, or mark as read. This does not seem worthwhile, so my contact with the LLVM project will decrease. This probably isn’t what was intended?
