I think that there is so much fragmentation in the user community
because we don't have anything "official" more dynamic and modern (or
familiar) than the mailing list.

I mean something equivalent to gitter/trello/github's issues/slack
channel. So the users create/find their own alternatives and this ends
in many sub communities.

The closest is the reddit channel where Eli interacts frequently. But of
course there is not any link to that in the emacs site, the readme or
anywhere.
