Chat
While traditionally the best way to communicate in AHA was the mailing list, now the most common place to find us is on chat. We can be found via a number of private or invite services.
Discord (public’ish)
- Invite: discord.gg/yMvbvst
- Channel: aha-public
- AHA! Members should ask for role to access aha-private
IRC (private)
- Server: irc.libera.chat:6697 (SSL)
- Channel: #AHA
- Channel key required
Slack (private)
- Server: austinhackers.slack.com
- Invite required
There are no specific channel rules, but please do not ask stupid questions like, “How do I hack X” or showing up to simply cause drama. This is a good place to talk to speakers from past meetings about their projects, or to look for feedback on your own talk.
FAQ
- All of the above chat methods are linked together. However, the public channel on Discord is isolated from the IRC and Slack. There is a private members channel that is bridged from Discord. Only members will be granted access.
How do I gain membership?
- Speak at a meeting and socialize.
How do I get an AHA hostcloak on IRC?
- Beg.
Anything that deserves a longer conversation, planning, or feedback from more members, should probably be taken to the mailing list.
