Replace Gitter links with Zulip

Open jtpio opened this issue 11 months ago • 10 comments

The docs still point users to Gitter, which is not used anymore by most Jupyter developers.

For example here:

https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/blob/f63a5d31bb11eaf3ed4bb94192732320d641ad9f/docs/source/community/content-community.rst?plain=1#L87

Or here:

It would be great to update the links to point to the Zulip instance instead: https://jupyter.zulipchat.com

We can likely just update most of the Gitter links to the following, without having to point to a specific channel.

For instance:

Jupyter Zulip `<https://jupyter.zulipchat.com>`_

Hi, can I work on this issue?

Hey! Great point out to switch from Gitter to Zulip. It would be a better option to add it instead of a replacement to keep it more inclusive.

What about all the other Gitter links, for example in https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/blob/master/docs/source/contributing/start-contributing.rst ?

Are they still in use?

You're right, those should be removed as well, reopeningthe issued.

Okay, I've added discourse too in #781 is that okay? Going through documentations.

And https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/blob/master/docs/source/contributing/communication-contributions.rst

This one has bottom two sections pending may I work on it?

@DeepLumiere go for it! 👍

Also, note that although your PR mentioned Discourse, the commit that got merged only contained a zulip link.

For what it's worth, half a year ago, in this governance issue, there were some voices still asking to keep links to gitter around, but at the same time there were others who were frustrated with the amount of a spam on gitter.

I've updated changes, would you please review, and thanks a lot for pointing that out.
