# Discord Cleanup ## IOTA Projects **#clients-discussion** and **#clients-dev**. both are read and writable by normal community members and both are used for discussion. however -dev was not used since mid of 2020. is there really a need for this channel? same for **#smartcontracts-discussion** / **#smartcontracts-dev** and **#streams-discussion** / **#streams-dev**. all read and writable for everybody. why we need two? **#hornet-dev** and **#goshimmer-dev**. only used for announcements. use **#tech-announcements** instead and use the badge to ping. e.g. @hornet and @goshimmer. **#identity-discussion** and **#identity-dev**, the later writable for members with "IOTA Identity Contributor". in the -dev is not so much going on that it would justify having this channel (and the role). **#stronghold-dev**. irregularly used for dev talk. now inactive since november 2020. remove? in short: | make this:| Into this:| | -------- | -------- | | ![](https://i.imgur.com/tnKZGin.png)| ![](https://i.imgur.com/rTny8st.png) | --- ## IOTA Impact #### The whole category is too vague and overlaps too much with other categories. **#impact-resources** what is it used for? **#community-wiki** move to Community Dev Category **#decentralized-marketplaces** & **#industry-marketplace**? still alive? no? archive it or merge into one **#digital-assets** > move to community development or IOTA Projects **#hackathons** > Community Category or remove until needed **#iot1-academy** > Community Category **#market-adoption** > Community Category or remove **#private-equity-iota** > Community Development **#yocto-openembedded** > Community Development **#social-impact** > Community Category ## Community Development **#ledger-hw-wallet** is used for support most of the time. forward people to **#help** and remove **#chrysalis-testnet**. is there a need for it? we have **#comnet**. remove **#testnet-devnet**. same. remove. **#fullnodes**. remove. we have already node specific channels (hornet, bee, goshimmer) ## Other **#botbox**. remove. we have **#tanglespam**. while they are not _exactly_ the same they are used for the same 99% of the time.
