Groomercord is laying off 17 percent of its staff, a move that CEO Jason Citron said is meant to “sharpen our focus and improve the way we work together to bring more agility to our organization.”
The cuts were announced today to employees in an all-hands meeting and internal memo I've obtained. They'll impact 170 people across various departments.

Frick Groomercord and frick everyone who contributed to it growing. Back in my days forum no-lifers were rightfully ridiculed. Now they suck each other off in Groomercord chatrooms 24/7 and get admin privileges. And the moving of information from indexable web pages to closed off servers infuriates me even more.

Groomercord killing forums is the absolute worst, there are so many useful resources that you can't find with search engines anymore and I hate it.

I for one look forward to the inevitable Groomercord hack that releases everyone's "private" conversations. I'm sure the AI bros will make good use of the data when the levee breaks.

You could say the same about literally every social media or networking site. Hasn't happened yet though, to my knowledge, and Groomercord is a pretty secondary target anyway compares to Facebook, Google, IG, and Twitter. Especially because the connection between a Groomercord handle and a real-life identity is tenuous at best, unlike a Facebook profile.

For internal use, yeah I think Slack or Teams are preferred.
There was that one UK department last year that had a public groomercord for some reason and kept getting raided by people who didn't like Israel.

They really hated Elon for pulling back the curtain on how many useless eaters these tech firms are filled with. Remember when they said Twitter was going to have outages all the time after he fired thousands of email-senders and then nothing happened? Lol.

Honestly, Groomercord was a useful as just a pseudo irc with a pretty skin on it. Now its awful. I hate that every modding community/author uses it as a way to give feedback/tech support. It's annoying as shit I have to keep joining servers, click through their bullshit rules agreeing that I wont call someone a stupid cute twink before I can find the proper channel to write a bug I ran into or get help.
Groomercord search function sucks, there is no such thing where you can search a topic, just keywords and you're only going to get the recently relevant by date. So then you'll have to click on each of those searched comments to see if anyone gave a solution to it.
And god forbid the server owner or whatever decides to have a shitfit or a scandal pop up where they were messaging peepee pics to minors so the server implodes and all the information will be gone and nobody had the means to archive or back it up.
