gollark: Wait, what other tools?
gollark: On the other hand, it is at least gathering it in unintended ways, and makes it *much* easier to search.
gollark: On the one hand, it provides information which, while it's not exactly public, is... at least mostly not *private*, exactly?
gollark: Yes, I've seen it. I'm actually a bit conflicted on it.
gollark: Multiplatform access is hardly an amazing thing given that open platforms tend to have perfectly good web clients. There are ones for XMPP and IRC.
