#3

@skunkbad ... that suggestion has come up Undecided There are other open source projects that use stack overflow for their community. Not sure how they deal with spam, but it seems like the strategy would offload some/all of that off our shoulders.

Stack overflow is also available to install in-house, though you then end up with forum management issues like we have now.

I do NOT want a wiki for CodeIgniter 4 on github. The one in place for CI3 has been so abused & disconnected it isn't funny. I don't know if relying on stackoverflow would end up similar or not.
