Thanks to everyone who has joined the Discord server, there were some issues with the invite link so try this one if you are still interested. The weekly thread is not going away but I thought there is also value in something more persistent. It is only for paying subscribers and you can join with a pseudonym if you prefer. Please do not share the link.
