What is Platform Selection?
Platform selection is the choice of where to host and grow a community, such as Discord, Slack, GitHub Discussions, a forum, or a mailing list. The right platform depends on the audience's existing habits, the desired type of interaction, and the level of moderation required. It is better to commit to one platform and do it well than to spread effort thinly across many.
