We wanted to let you know that the TiDB Forum is now in read-only mode, and we’ll be fully shutting it down in the coming months. Discord and Slack will be our main platforms for community discussions and collaboration.
Why the change?
After gathering feedback from community members, we decided to move to these platforms to make communication even more interactive. Here’s why:
-
Community-Friendly: Both Discord and Slack are widely used and familiar tools, perfect for building vibrant, global communities. -
Real-Time Communication: These platforms allow for quick, interactive conversations, making it easier to connect, ask questions, and collaborate with others. -
TiDB AI Assistance: TiDB AI, our built-in assistant for TiDB-related questions, is now fully integrated into Discord and Slack. It makes it even easier to get quick, reliable answers.
We support both Discord and Slack, so you can choose whichever platform works best for you:-)
Discord offers some cool features you won’t want to miss!
This shift will help us create an even more active, inclusive, and engaging community experience.In addition, before the forum is shut down we’ll be migrating existing posts to GitHub Discussions.
Join us on Discord or Slack—say hi, join the conversation, and be part of our vibrant community! We can’t wait to see you there!
