Honestly, just create a Telegram group that is invite only. It's free,
people can join if they request the link, and aside from moderation, it
requires no maintenance. In the absence of an "official" one, I will be
creating an "unofficial" one just to have a place for people to go.
We're not a massive group (in terms of actively posting members), and the
messenger board format has gone the way of the Dodo and the Baiji. Like it
or not, instant messengers are the easiest and most convenient of the
options available. Don't overthink it.
