Show HN: Train Station Pianos
Very nice! Reminds me of OpenBenches: https://openbenches.org/
You've missed one 'airports' in the footer: 'This page lists pianos that have been confirmed to be in airports around the world.'
Thought about branching out into train station organs? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Bridge_station_organ?us...

OpenBenches – A map of 28,616 memorial benches
There's some recent good news about this in a GitHub issue: https://github.com/openbenches/openbenches.org/issues/232

I know this is going to sound stupid to many people on here who don’t like their country, but I’m a French autistic person whose main special interest is the UK. Can you send me positive / nice things about the UK that I can look at when I feel a meltdown coming?
I love going on https://openbenches.org It is a map you can zoom in on that shows you memorial benches in the UK in their location and what’s written on the plaque.

An outdoor bench, just what Syd would have wanted
You should upload that to http://openbenches.org

Bench Does Not Exist
I’m more amazed that their source OpenBenches exists.
> OpenStreetMap has a list of (nearly) every bench in the world – but they don’t record whether there is an inscription on it. We tried to send a Freedom of Information request to Westminster Council for a list of their benches – but they don’t keep that information. […] So now it is time to crowd-source the data!

Hacktoberfest: Dear Maintainers,
This one goes without saying. However, many repositories did have steps to running locally, and a list of the requirements. For example, this repository lists the environments to run the application locally.

Discord to Start Showing Ads for Gamers to Boost Revenue
> Tell me another platform that is free, has realtime chat, voice and video, has stable service, allows sharing images and other media, with good ownership management... and is open source.
Mattermost: https://mattermost.com/
Rocket.Chat: https://www.rocket.chat/
Nextcloud Talk: https://nextcloud.com/talk/
Self hosting and some assembly required. I've run all of them on cheap VPSes to explore a Slack/Discord replacement, neither was mindblowing but all of them seemed okay (Nextcloud's offering was rather barebones, though).
Audio and video support varies because getting those right is challenging, at best you'd just integrate with something like Jitsi, that one's actually pretty good for meetings and such: https://jitsi.org/ and has a cloud version too: https://meet.jit.si/ (yet people still go for Zoom and it's odd UI/UX choices)
I actually rather liked forums back in the day, but I guess nobody will be setting up that many phpBB instances in the current year, though projects like Discourse also seem promising: https://www.discourse.org/
I don't think many people at all will be leaving Discord, due to how entrenched the platform is (network effect): if you want people to help you with what you're working on, you go where they are, not vice versa.

My views on NeoHaskell
I disagree. Lots of communities, e.g. Julia or Stan, use https://www.discourse.org. Discourse is GPL2 and emulates old Internet forums.

Is BuddyPress still a viable option to create a community-based website? Or should I be looking at other options?
Why isn't Discourse being listed here for forum software? It's open source and designed for modern communities. https://www.discourse.org/

Don't Use Discord as a Forum
Discourse is open source: https://github.com/discourse/discourse
You could hook it up to a mail provider and can host it yourself for less if you wanted.

Why does the mastodon.social's privacy policy template link to Discourse's GitHub?
I was reading mastodon.social's privacy policy, and noticed that the link at the bottom to Discourse's privacy policy links to Discourse's Github. I'm surprised because I thought it would be the privacy policy on discourse.org.

Think Twice Before You Use Discord for Your Community
Yep. Any platform run by someone else can kick you off for any reason, and time.
You should consider looking into running discourse, which is a modernized forum software: https://github.com/discourse/discourse
Nice examples of what it looks like:
https://discourse.nixos.org/
https://forum.level1techs.com/
As a bonus, the content and community will be accessible to search engines, so it’s easy to find answers to problems that gave been already been addressed.
In general, consider combining the two, where discourse is the anchor of the community that can’t be yanked out from under you, while discord is the one that sells the data from your players in exchange for free voice and text chat.
It’s also possible to enable logging in with discord credentials https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-discord-login-for-dis...
As well as pushing content from discord to discourse so it’s not hidden and losable: https://blog.discourse.org/2021/05/discord-and-discourse-bet...

Is there interest in a specialized forum for gifted people?
So, I'm asking myself if you would be interested in joining a good old-fashioned forum (probably using discourse as software) in order to communicate with other gifted people around the globe. And please add any ideas you might have for a platform like this.
