I also have this problem. Not sure if the original tweet means accessibility as in screen readers, etc, but it's very true for blind people nonetheless. I contributed to the compiler and there's a chance that if IRC goes out of favor I won't even be able to participate anymore.https://twitter.com/edefic/status/1016669988667572225 …
The issue with Slack is not openness, it’s lack of moderation tools. Slack expects an HR department to be your moderator; we don’t have one of those. Discord is an experiment, not official yet:https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/exploring-new-communication-channels/7859 …

That's a fair concern. Unfortunately, Discord is woefully inaccessible to people with disabilities, and Discord have shown absolutely no commitment to or even interest in fixing this, despite requests from quite a few people. Happy to chat about these concerns if that's helpful.

Feel free to weigh in on the thread. Employees have told us something completely different regarding accessibility; they’re actively working on it right now.
