What makes it even more crazy is 90% of projects are using github/gitlab/gitea or some other modern git platform that literally has a wiki feature built in. And everyone and their dog either knows or could very quickly learn how to use markdown to write the wiki.

If you want a chatroom at least use matrix as it's open source and privacy respecting. Though IRC is better for a community. And good old forums are best.

Matrix

Open Element iOS

Start stopwatch

Syncing completes

Stop stopwatch

I have eight rooms added to the Matrix client! And Lemmings tell me it’s not Element, things are just slow.

Hoping they were wrong and I’m doing something wrong or this is totally atypical (e.g. connected to a really slow server).

FOSS is worth tradeoffs. Unindexable corporate software is regressive. But! Need some more speed over here! Individual chats/rooms are slow/buggy too.

Ohh thought you misread and didn’t realize it’s available on iOS until someone else commented. Success, thanks!
