The Documenso team is growing, too. [Lucas joined Timur](https://twitter.com/ElTimuro/status/1648608988391514112), then [Ephraim](https://twitter.com/documenso/status/1662418374243041280) and [David](https://github.com/dguyen) recently joined the journey. We want to stay in touch with the community as much as possible and avoid context-switching to focus on work, support, and fun.

We’re an open-source project and focus on building a great developer experience. So, when we thought of a Slack replacement, community- and developer-friendly, Discord was an obvious choice — not to mention that it would help us keep up with [OSS friends](https://documen.so/oss), too.

In this post, we won’t debate *why* we’re switching — Slack vs. Discord is a long-lasting debate with pros and cons, and fans on both sides. There are great [stories](https://blog.meilisearch.com/from-slack-to-discord-our-migration/) and [threads](https://twitter.com/McPizza0/status/1655519558600470528) on the topic. We just don’t want to write yet another story here.

Instead, we’ll focus on *how* we plan to make the switch.
