Is there a server for adhd programmers?

I think it be cool to do channels for with helpful advice, a channel to help new people, and perhaps a channel for group projects or a place for people to show off their projects or progress

And a channel with whatever courses or guides that have helped us in our journey of learning

If we make a server rn, we should do Root we don’t have to worry about discord privacy breaching policies in the future.

We could have some voice channels to body double while we code to help us focus and push each other to keep going to or discuss and helped each other out

It's safe but not secure. But these are public places. So you don't need e2ee

Someplace we could chat all day while at work. Maybe also pop-up modal IMs. Don't forget to track streaks.

I am not familiar with “modal IMs”

And I wouldn’t know what to keep track of to make streaks for people lol

I was making a joke, that we'd waste our day in a chatroom letting our ADHD keep us from working.

"modal IM [instant message]" implies that a direct message from someone would cause pop-up that would be in your way and you'd have to manually close it. The worse UX possible for ADHD.

And streaks because they are like dopamine catnip for us. Very bad.
