- **Zoom** - *to be, or not to be*
- Keep all questions on Slack instead
- 3 different Zoom links would probably be much better approach
- Breakout rooms, only host can move people to them, which makes them useless
- **Discord**
- Invite: https://discord.gg/a7u4Ja3
- Use of **Discord** for workshops?
- No breakout rooms administration needed
- Video + screen sharing, for everyone
- No limits on number of participants
- Super easy just to jump in between sessions, for both students and teachers. One click!
- Free.
- One tool to much? *Or not, it's replacing Zoom so it's actually the same ..*
- Disadvantage: Yet another login ... :(
- **You can always send a message on Discord - even on non workshop hours**
