The amount of effort of copying an pasting an announcement text to a new outlet 
is very small compared to the potential payback. So, yes, for the mometn we 
will be posting to all places, old and new.

We keep tabs on impressions, engagements, etc. on all the outlets we post to 
(lots of data here https://collaborate.kde.org/s/8cqZD54ibCkkQmK) . This 
dictates what we prioritise

Although is still to early to say whether Discuss will be viable outlet, we 
will monitor it as well and decide what to do when we have enough data to do 
so.

Cheers
