I want to integrate a chat room, then I realized discourse comes with a chat room, then I realized it’s not very good. For example, I tried to use it here in meta and I can’t make sense of it.

[image] gene morris: I think there’s a huge misunderstanding. I’m not trying to create any channel here in meta. This came about because you asked how you could add a channel in your OP (alongside a screenshot from Meta) when you meant join a channel. [image] gene morris: This clears up …

Is there an option to list chat channels without using search here on Meta? Or is channels here(on Meta) just configured with closed groups?
