[BETA] Discourse for Shadowsocks

[Mygod]

Given the current status of shadowsocks, it would be necessary to have a forum for shadowsocks in order to save developers' time. Discourse helped host a new forum for us. Feel free to check it out at discourse.shadowsocks.org.

Currently there are five main categories:

• Implementations: Questions and general discussions for implementation-specific topics;
• Protocol: Suggestions and discussions about the protocol;
• Plugins: Questions and general discussions for plugins;
• Alternatives: Questions and general discussions for forks and alternatives to shadowsocks, like shadowsocksr, v2ray, etc;
• Meta: Discussions about the site itself.

Note: Issues that should go straight to developers should still be posted on GitHub issues instead.

If anyone...

• wants a subcategory for their implementation/alternative;
• has suggestions in general...

feel free to create a topic at meta or reply below if you think this is a bad idea. :thinking:

Subdomain discourse seems too long, why not call forum? forum.shadowsocks.org

Discourse requirement.

cannot login with github account, after click login with github, it redirects to https://community.shadowsocks.org/auth/github/callback?error=redirect_uri_mismatch&error_description=The+redirect_uri+MUST+match+the+registered+callback+URL+for+this+application.&error_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.github.com%2Fapps%2Fmanaging-oauth-apps%2Ftroubleshooting-authorization-request-errors%2F%23redirect-uri-mismatch&state=e6401a560638a2c12fe1e83e1ac5571e011fe78a5a4050a7

@madeye Could you update the URL please?

[qiuyuzhou]

I intend to lead the user's usage discussion to this forum. There is too much noise in GitHub issues. Could you add a subcategory for ShadowsocksX-NG? @Mygod

[Mygod]

@qiuyuzhou Consider it done. Also please check your inbox.

@madeye Update?

[madeye]

@Mygod I think it's already done.

[riobard]

@madeye I think the Get Support button on the front page of shadowsocks.org should point to the Discourse forum instead.

[qiuyuzhou]

OK, I found it. It's a second level subcategory.
