Might not be nice to most users not present there or our host Chris. To take a chunk of his userbase to an effectively parallel forum, which is in nature and as a formal analysis parasitic in nature on an ongoing basis.
You can setup temporary emails fast, mail.com or just Google “disposable email” which are instant, and post it here if someone needs contacting you and you acquiesce. Then can exchange other emails there if wanting to.
However if Chris has the time to manage a second cyber location, and inclination, I can suggest a much better alternative than signal or telegram to him here.

I don’t mind linking over to other tools/sites. In fact, I might set up a links page for links out to truly interesting places of discussion like Donation Coder, the Zettelkasten site, etc.
Also, it wouldn’t be too much trouble to add a PM feature, but there are quite a number of more pressing features and improvements I need to get to first. Top on my list are providing markdown formatting, image attachments, and the ability to edit your own posts within a certain window after posting.

Yes, indeed.

I’m against a separate forum that would act as a drain on discussions here. A PM feature is not important to me, and probably not to most others. It sounds shiny now, but how much use would it really get? Certainly not enough to justify me having to check this forum and some new forum in order to get full value on the discussions.
