discourse (the open-source forum platform scanlines is built on) have released an update that includes a native chat feature built into the forum…
you can try it out by using the 
button in top right panel !
…as you may know, before now we have been running an instance of rocket.chat over on chat.scanlines.xyz - its been pretty inactive for the most part lately, but has been super useful for our streamlines series and birthday showcases !
this built in chat will fully replace chat.scanlines.xyz for that purpose - and maybe even find some new uses ? (will save us some money on server costs too 
) - i will be taking the old one down in some weeks… so if you have any messages over there you want to save do it 
let me know if anything seems wrong or may need to be configured, otherwise will see ya in the
