    IRC: simplest way of communicating online, and a bouncer can be availed for free

    Forums: great store of knowledge and friendly, helpful people. If you ask a question in discord, nobody will ever see the answer again.

      I can’t related more on the second one. Slack and Microsoft Teams seems to be the default way to communicate in corporate environments.
