What is Spectrum Chat?
It is difficult to grow, manage and measure the impact of online communities. Community owners need modern, chat-based communities but are running into scaling issues when their community grows beyond a few hundred members. It becomes hard to keep track of who's who, know what conversations are happening, and ensure that the community is staying healthy and productive.
Spectrum aims to be the best platform to build any kind of community online by combining the best of web 2.0 forums and real-time chat apps. With best-in-class moderation tooling, a single platform for all your communities, threaded conversations by default, community health monitoring (and much more to come), we think that we will be able to help more people start and grow the best online communities.
Spectrum will move to read-only as of August 10, 2021. It is recommended to use GitHub Discussions instead. Read more: https://spectrum.chat/spectrum/general/join-us-on-our-new-journey~e4ca0386-f15c-4ba8-8184-21cf5fa39cf5

I use it for Figma and Sketch online communities, good forum for discussing problems and feature requests for software
Would be awesome for building communities. Big disappointments are the login restriction to GitHub accounts and no updates since GitHub took over :(.
