While looking for Discord alternatives I came across this project which looks like a great alternative for the kinds of Discord servers centered around Open Source projects and organizations. Ones where live chat and voice rooms aren’t the focus.

It’s a combination of forums and knowledge base that would be perfect for this use case.

    Some kind of weird WebGL error on their site I’ve never seen before.

    Doesn’t load for me.

    LibreWolf doesn’t seem to be offering to activate canvas.

    Oh well.

        Exactly same error for me. I’m glad there are such indicators so I don’t have to waste my time on such a crappy overcomplicated design.

        You mean why does the site for a forum software need webgl, by which the only reason I can think of is tracking visitors somehow. It’s not like the background landscape on the site is dynamic or something.

          i added a dumb globe thingy and some useless effects in a mania of creative chaos, not felt a spark of creativity in ages and hate the current site, but you’re right this was stupid, i removed the useless webgl stuff and made it simpler, thanks for the feedback!

            Thanks!

            It’s not so much about wholly removing webgl contrasted to at least having some sort of fallback that allows the site to be experienced, but thanks again for at least tackling the change.

              yeah I’m usually disciplined with progressive enhancement but not this time, should have been a .webm or .gif lol
