<raptop> SnoopJeDi: how hard is it to set up a research group (or department) slack/discord?
<raptop> (I mean, I'd be fine with an IRC channel, but not sure on if that adds a barrier)
<SnoopJeDi> very easy
<raptop> hrm, looks like discord has a "create server" button
<SnoopJeDi> raptop, having done both I would say a Discord is the better choice for a departmental thing, particularly if nobody's putting up funds. Free Slack would probably be okay for a research group, but you very much should _not_ use it as an information store
<SnoopJeDi> re: an IRC channel, freenode would probably be a sane home for such a thing, I think they'd be okay with that?
<SnoopJeDi> but the activation energy for any given user is higher since the systems are a little less obvious and feature discovery is harder
<raptop> My advisor is messing around with blackboard stuff, but I think that assumes always video, while something partially async/text based seems more useful
<SnoopJeDi> certainly more useful for quick exchanges

* raptop feels like a STEM strike is a bit silly in the context of being on a research assistanceship. (For teaching, however, it makes more sense)
<WeylandsWings> raptop: is this part of the BLM stuff?
<raptop> yeah
