Interesting. I think text chats would be a nice addition as they allow asynchronous conversations which would be beneficial.

Fully agree. If this was a text first, voice if you want thing that would be much nicer and accessible too.

Isn't that... what we have here at Hacker News already?

[poisonborz]

Um no? Not one on one, not instantaneous, nobody expects an answer to any reply.

I agree partially but I think a lot of people - myself included - don’t necessarily check back to their own comments. And there’s no notification- which I’m sure is a feature more than a bug.

But I do think a chat would be a nice addition.

Honestly I wouldn't mind a good ol' fashioned global group chat. I know there are moderation issues there, but I miss IRC and want more of that feeling elsewhere.

I should just go reinstall my IRC setup...

[pknerd]

there used to be a site like hnchat

[andrepd]

Yes to chat, no to discord.

Lol, I quickly spun one up, will need HN profile verification with a minimum of 80 points. Come over. Will delete this if less than 20 people after a week. https://discord.gg/nTW9FST2Zn
