Off Topic Form
I saw a very old post in the "News" section that addressed this issue. It is of course now 2020.
Is there any website (or similar) where FreeBasic users can engage in general discussion, whether on or off topic?

facebook ?
Re: Off Topic Form
There are some FreeBasic FB pages, but...
- one is a local page in Cotonou, Benin
- the second is in german, last post 2017
- the third one is empty
Only this one shows some activity: https://www.facebook.com/groups/freebasic/
Not much code there, though, so I suppose your best bet is posting questions here in this forum...

I mean, whole facebook is offtopic ? :-)

There is a freeBASIC Discord server:

Re: Off Topic Form
It's good to know that there is at least one active Facebook group in English (and German), even though personally I rarely use Facebook.
Discord in my opinion is the best way to chat with other FreeBASIC users. Yes, the Forum is the best place for posting specific questions, but it is nice to just chat with other programmers.

Re: Off Topic Form
It seems that the Discord invite is invalid/expired. Does anyone have the correct one, or does the server no longer exist?
Re: Off Topic Form
I did not realize that invites expired so quickly. The one below should not expire:

I also edited the one in my original post, just to save on confusion.

Re: Off Topic Form
I can confirm that the new link for Discord works. Thank you :-)
Re: Off Topic Form
Because my IP-address is different every day, discord requires me identify traffic lights and busses every time I want to log in, and in addition a verification code by e-mail every time. Without it, I would join more often.
