I think not. I think there's a bunch of FAQs he that don't need to be, 
so they can be in a IRC/Discord/Chat place. Here should be things that 
are relevant, that need to be permanent; and people should suggest in 
chat to put things discovered relevant on chat, here, so this is not 
cluttered with bunch of irrelevant info, or topics not much of POV-Ray 
that won't be relevant anymore; like this dang thread that shouldn't exist.

You're wrong, it holds candle, it stays on the chat until someone 
answers it, and people do like to chat and participate in a more active 
way, there are Discord chats about everything, which supplies a more 
dynamic demand for casual chatting/discussing of topics. It doesn't need 
to be synchronous, neither is this newsgroup, it's for just for free 
conversations, what part of that you don't fuking understand? There's a 
need fr that, that's why that app exists
