ITSRYNNO TOOLKIT // Community

Discord

Communities, project coordination, gaming and the place where a lot of conversations around projects happen.

Community Used daily Communication
Why I use it

Projects are rarely just code

A lot of building happens around the actual files. Discord gives projects, communities and friends somewhere to talk, share ideas and organise what happens next.

Useful shortcuts

Discord basics

Quick switcher Ctrl + K
Search Ctrl + F
Mute server Right-click server
Pin useful info Message menu
Recommended setup

Discord, set up properly

  • Use channels for specific purposes instead of making one giant everything channel.
  • Keep important information pinned so it does not disappear into the chat history.
  • Use roles and permissions deliberately when running a community.
Useful stuff

Threads keep side conversations from taking over the main channel.

  • Roles are useful for both permissions and simple community organisation.
  • Forum channels can work well when conversations need to remain searchable.
ITSRYNNO tip

Pin things people will need again

If somebody will have to ask the same question twice, the answer probably belongs in a pinned message, channel topic or dedicated information channel.

Toolkit entry

This page documents how the tool fits into the ITSRYNNO workflow rather than inventing a desktop version number where there is no useful public feed.
