Various Discord and Community Updates

[endigo9740]

With v1 fast approaching we should aim to flush out our Discord experience. This can include, but is not limited to:

• Update our Code of Conduct - which is currently based on Svelte's iteration
• Update our rules (per channel) - help ensure folks aren't posting in the wrong place
• Implement a sticky post at the top of the #support channel to cover common rules and expectations
• Enable "Rule Screening" for newly added members
• Introduce a moderation bot that can quick link to useful pages, such as FAQs, blog posts, the website, repo, etc

@Sarenor @LukeHagar I welcome your help with this too!

Happy to help!

1. I think most of our channel rules are fine, support could use an update and we may want to put a cap on how often you can show of your site in #showcase.
2. Hopefully I can write that up right now
3. I have no experience with moderation bots, but as with Accepting the CoC before being able to interact with the rest of the Discord I can ask around

My suggested Support rules post & rules:
To help us support you, please try to follow the following rules:

1. One currently open support post per day. We're a small team of volunteers and don't want to get overwhelmed
2. Before you open a support thread, did you search through the already existing ones? Maybe someone had a similar problem already!
3. Give your post a semantic title. "Noob question" doesn't tell us anything and is horrible to search, try to sum up what you need help with.
4. Give us as much information as possible in the initial post:
   • Is your project set up by hand or with the Skeleton CLI?
   • What did you expect to happen?
   • What happened instead?
   • Example code or even better a link to the relevant file on GitHub
   • If your project is deployed in a publicly accessible way, a link and a reproduction guide
   • Screenshots or videos sometimes say more than words
5. If you do provide sample code, remember that Discord supports codeformatting with 3 `.
   If you put the language behind the opening backticks (html/css/ts/js) it will even provide syntax highlighting which is much appreciated during debugging!

If you don't follow these rules, we may take longer to answer or disregard your post altogether, so please try to work with us!

Apparently following the rules set out for Discord to be a Community server is a good idea, for minimum verification levels, mods should have mobile authentication, etc.

I don't think we should use the Discovery feature, but the other Community-Features like Server Insights might be helpful and with Discovery being opt-in it might not be a bad idea

This is great @Sarenor. I'm going to aim to cover this as part of the next release cycle so we'll begin implementing some of this then. Thanks!

Folding the new Code of Conduct update into this ticket as well:

• Introduce a new Code of Conduct on Discord #780

From @Sarenor

As Neew in Discord pointed out we apparantly get the Rules Screening functionality when we turn the server in a community server. UX should be a lot better that way!

Still gotta think of a way how to put "We don't want web 3 stuff in our community" into the CoC, too.

Got an initial try for that here after a bit of git fumbling cause I was an idiot.
Everything should be fixed though:

FYI we've settled on Carl.gg as our mod bot for now. It's fairly power rich and gives us room to grow.
