Talk:1782: Team Chat

This is an xkcd about why the majority is wrong. ;) 108.162.229.238 16:32, 6 January 2017 (UTC) seirl

See 1258: First and 269: TCMP. Well funny enough you were neither the first to edit the page nor the talk page :-) Thanks for the start, but try to not delete the incomplete tag, but just write first draft or add what you can see is missing. --Kynde (talk) 16:40, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Good points for future edits! Appreciated. ♪ 141.101.107.198 16:45, 6 January 2017 (UTC) -Sixi

I find it funny how I'm editing the article, fixing the incomplete parts, then all of a sudden (as soon as I click "enter", I must add), someone's already fixed the incomplete parts, and there was a "conflict with the edit". :P --JayRulesXKCD ^{what's up?} 18:47, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

My first addition here, tried to explain skype vs slack and the title text. Feel free to roast me constructively :D Hope I didn't go too deep in Slack, thought most people don't know it and my little experience may help :) Also hope my unix tools explanation won't offend too many people; I'm a happy screen user myself, but it does have quite a bit of a learning curve. --141.101.96.88 19:20, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Well, at least not ii 172.68.11.47 02:13, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Well, I think Randal is slightly off, it more goes like this:

2006: The company officially use Messenger - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2009: The company officially use Skype - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2012: The company officially use Linq - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2014: The company officially use Slack - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2016: The company officially use Teams - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

You forgot to add the part where it says that in 2018 they finally migrate... but to Discord. --JayRulesXKCD ^{what's up?} 12:54, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

randall didnt mention discord? smh 162.158.58.159 21:18, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

I find it strange no-one has mentioned that IRC let's you run your own servers, with no 3rd party involved; whereas Skype & Slack both depend upon centralized corporate-owned servers, which are forced to silently comply with surveillance requests without so much as a warrant. That's just unacceptable for many dev groups. (Hence the popularity of apps like Discord.)

I had a lot of trouble viewing this page in Lynx through the Worldgroup gateway on a local dial-up Bulletin Board System. I think it's a problem with my QModem configuration. If anyone can help, please contact me on IRC. I'm usually available in the #Kaypro users room. 108.162.221.46 21:59, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
