We're finally doing it! Online! In a voice/video chat room!
Here's the deal. We all want to drink and chat. I know I do. I love it! But online platforms for voice and video are kind of garbage.
For now, my plan is to do a discord server which I already have setup and ready to go. I will send the link for that here once it's time.
It's worth noting that I am trying to find ways to make the server controls easy to ban shitty people or mute loud mic people, etc, but I am not a discord server pro, so I'm still learning.
Also, I'm sure everyone is going to suggest a free for all vid chat style service like Zoom, or that I should use slack, but in my opinion, discord has the best set of features for our unique situation. Anyway, we can talk about it if you think you have better ideas. There are other options available.
Anyway. See you there!
