=== <u>Discord Threads</u> === | |||
We could achieve some level clearness in discord by having more threaded discussions and linking to those threaded discussions from the Wiki. | |||

=== <u>Linear Workspace</u> === | |||
We could create a new Linear workspace just for discussions with the community. | |||
(Limitations: Everyone needs to create a Linear account, Only 250 active issues possible) | |||
