Maybe discuss tag could modify posts to become real time discussions?

#meta

Also removes the body, because I find by the time I'm done setting up the premise, I'm already burnt out. Could discuss be like the GO Live of forem?

Yes , please... Is there a specific place we can ask for this?

I'm not sure but meta is the correct tag for this post at-least, maybe that will help. When it was just DEV, a live chat feature existed but it went away, I felt it was a little removed from the content but this kind of go live idea and then subsequent replay comments could be fun/an absolute moderation nightmare 😅 still, you don't ask, you don't get

I think I remember the live chat feature. Or was it more like a private message? I think it could be helpful if bought back, even at a restricted scope.

I like the how the DEV has evolved into a really good platform for community to come together.
Other than better search options, Only thing on my wishlist for this is to have a basic emoji picker integrated with the editor. 🥺
I used to use a gnome-shell extension for adding emoji to messages here, but that extension is now incompatible with gnome-42. Currently uLauncher has a good emoji plugin, if you know what emoji you want to use, but something similar to android or skype integrated directly to editor would be really cool.
