Hi everyone ! 👋 We have a small (but exciting!) community update to share! We’ll be **saying goodbye to our public Slack** and officially **moving the conversation here**. Before you panic — this is actually a glow-up 🌟 While Slack has been a great place to connect, there’s one big downside: _conversations slowly disappear and aren’t searchable in the long term_. That means valuable answers, insights, and “aha!” 💡 ! moments get lost over time. And we think the knowledge we create as a community deserves better. [https://forum.weaviate.io/](https://forum.weaviate.io/) Our forum is built to be a lasting, searchable home for all those great discussions. - Better indexing. - Better discoverability. - Better for future-you (and everyone else who runs into the same question six months from now). Think of it as moving from a busy group chat to a cozy, well-organized library… that still feels like a living room. 🛋 We’d absolutely love for you to keep the conversation going there — start threads, share ideas, ask questions, and help others. The community isn’t changing — and neither is the forum — we’re just making it our main address. And if you ever have a question you’d rather not ask in public, no worries at all. You can always reach us directly at [support@weaviate.io](mailto:support@weaviate.io). We’re here for you. **Thanks for being part of this community!** We’re really excited about what’s ahead — and we can’t wait to build it together with you! See you around 💚 The Weaviate Team ---
