tabacco Posted September 30, 2015 I'll take an invite. My username at idlethumbs.net. But also, you can make slacks open for anyone to join, which might save you a lot of hassle in processing invites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darthbator Posted September 30, 2015 I'll take an invite. My username at idlethumbs.net. But also, you can make slacks open for anyone to join, which might save you a lot of hassle in processing invites. How do I go about doing that? Just wildcard (*) in the "allow signups from domain" option in the management panel. I dug through the settings last night and couldn't seem to find an option for "open enrollment". I sent out more invites. I'll update the initial post once I figure out how to properly open this up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cordeos Posted September 30, 2015 worse than irc Translators note I like doing unnecessary work. Also gifs may be a danger with the IdleThumbs crowd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darthbator Posted October 1, 2015 So turns out there's a little nodejs app that will automate the process for us. You can go ahead and sign up yourself with the link in the first post if I haven't invited you already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadHat Posted October 9, 2015 Just chiming in to say that Discord is quite excellent. Text and voice chat built into one tidy client, embedded images/links, and it shows what you're playing like Steam (in-game overlay is on their to-do list). All it really needs is more options, or to be more open to modification. For instance, the amount of whitespace between messages is kind of excessive, makes it a pain to catch up with chat when many people are talking. But hey, it's early days and the devs seem onto it. Anyway, I guess I'll go ahead and join this since I always forget to join the IRC channel. Fake edit: lol, this app looks exactly like Discord. Which came first?

darthbator Posted October 9, 2015 I believe slack came first. A lot of their popularity at the moment is derived from the fact that most offices are switching their office messaging to slack and away from stuff like hip chat and jabber. Makes it convenient to just "add another channel" for any number of things. That's actually why I ended up starting this. I end up just having slack open all the time anyways.

SecretAsianMan Posted October 9, 2015 How is the mobile app? I don't really have time to do it at home and getting on my work computer isn't an option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gormongous Posted October 9, 2015 How is the mobile app? I don't really have time to do it at home and getting on my work computer isn't an option. I like the app. It's less finicky than the browser version, although it still sucks typing on a virtual keyboard and the channel's occasional gif-fests look like nonsense (but how is that any different, hey).

SuperBiasedMan Posted October 9, 2015 The phone app is pretty solid. The only drawback I'd call out is that the button to bring you to the last read message is very finicky. But that might not matter to you if you're not keen so see all the chat, all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted October 9, 2015 Switching teams (if you also use Slack for work) is a bit of a bother on the iOS app, but other than that it's fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
