Channels: Forum as a channel [re: Matrix as a channel]

[grarpamp]

On topic of users freely using various comms platforms...
Among *.freebsd.org services listed on the front page...

https://forums.freebsd.org/

This forum platform appears to completely deny users
of Tor Browser the ability to even *read* and search
the forum even in a *read-only* mode. That's bad.

Further, posts on the forum are not yet gateway'd out
to even read-only forum-*@ lists, so users can't
read and search them there either, nor mirror and import.
Nor is the forum database archived for public mirrors
or importation into local forum instances. So ditto.


https://wiki.freebsd.org/Channels

Probably want to simply list all channels here.
Denoting numbers of users observed,
thus users decide on own the potential to find other users,
as opposed to worrying about marking
any as official, viable, proposed, etc.
