                        The Lean community switched from Gitter to Zulip in early 2018,
                        and never looked back. Zulip’s stream/topic model has been
                        essential for organising research work and simultaneously
                        onboarding newcomers as our community scaled. My experience with
                        both the app and the website is extremely positive!

                        For more than a year, Zulip has been the cornerstone of our online
                        Category Theory community. We greatly appreciate the seamless
                        integration of Latex in every message as well as being able to get
                        sidetracked (which, let's face it, happens a lot with
                        mathematicians) without compromising an entire conversation: we
                        can simply create a new topic for every tangent! Moreover, the
                        flexible streams-and-topics system greatly helps us navigate
                        through the constant influx of messages, as it is simple to tell
                        if a message is relevant to one's interests.
                        <br />
                        <br />
                        All in all, Zulip
                        enabled us to create an unprecedentedly extensive, active and
                        vibrant community for all category theory enthusiasts out there.
