The Talkyard Community

Here you can ask questions, report problems and suggest ideas. Welcome!

What's missing in Talkyard — missing features relatively many ask for.
Roadmap, Aug, Sept, Oct 2022, and a slightly out-of-date Roadmap year 2021.

There's a support chat, e.g. for quick questions.

We usually reply within three days. Or maybe three weeks if it's nothing urgent — could you remind us if we're too slow?
