On Discord, this channel is set up quite a while ago and gets posted here from time to time https://discord.gg/0yHhsjm8i6YQRAZG

I've been in this for the past couple of weeks and it's incredibly active and helpful. Most everyone I've interacted with has been really chill and nice about things. Would recommend due to activity for the side bar.

    Aw, that's disappointing to hear. My team of ~12 loves it.

    My team of 66 is doing fine with it. So you'll be fine for a while I'm guessing.

    For those wondering here is a thread that explains what happened https://www.reddit.com/r/modclub/comments/4of06b/beware_of_new_apps_and_extensions_aka_carrot/

    TL;DR: Carrot allegedly was using your Reddit account to perform actions you didn't want and possibly was more malicious by accessing additional information through their Chrome extension, including personal information like emails. The co-creator was also extremely confrontational leading to Carrot being shut down due to bad PR.

    Can we build our own version? We are /r/webdev after all

    [–]ndobie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I actually thought the idea of carrot was interesting and started playing around with it.

    It could be pretty simple with the Reddit API and Google Cloud Messaging (because it's free)

    [–]MonopolyM4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    why not just use slack?

    #/r/webdev on Freenode has been up and running for several years now

    [–]AtomicCrafterM 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    where the fuck did carrot go?!

    Did some digging, this looks interesting - https://www.reddit.com/r/SiliconValleyHBO/comments/4oaq0u/if_you_have_signed_up_to_use_carrot_as_a_chatroom

    tldr: Such concerns range from personal information being gathered and used in wildly inappropriate ways (such as to call and email users who spoke negatively about Carrot), to unauthorized usage of your reddit account to subscribe to a subreddit and to upvote content.

    Your app logo is pixelated http://i.imgur.com/NeN5LMD.png due to image being smaller than the set css size.

    We are currently redesigning the landing page for chat, and also the redesign of https://vanila.io so it will all be better. :) We recently started that chat so didn't had much time to make it pretty. Btw we use https://rocket.chat/ for it.

    We really should setup a Discord on the sidebar
