Strongly consider the use of something like Gitter over Slack. Slack's free limitations become irritating fast, unless Facebook is willing to pay for a workspace just for Prophet.
Gitter is also FOSS.
I personally don't use Slack for anything so I don't have a sense for how much of an improvement over the github issues it would provide. Like @Knifa I am thus wary of a commercial service. However, it would be great to have a place for discussion/questions that is separate from actual issues with the software and would appreciate any other feedback people have on what would be useful and easiest. @seanjtaylor.
I've actually started using Gitter in a number of projects. It seems to do the job effectively.
What is the link to the community please?
To continue this discussion, I think Gitter is the best option I can find right now. It integrates into a project website nicely as well. Here it is on Deeplearning4j:
I'd like to see a gitter room, as well. They're free and extremely easy to set up. I find that a gitter room is more conducive than a github issue queue to informal conversations about how to solve problems one encounters when working with a specific library.
Hey all,
Can we establish a Slack community for Facebook Prophet somewhere? I help collaborate RxPy and the folks at PySlackers gave us a channel to bounce questions, discussions, and ideas more freely which is harder to do in GitHub issues. Maybe we can do the same for Prophet?
