How to Join the Discord Server on 16-bits.org

Updated

16-bits.org links directly to a Discord server called TARC, aimed at trackers and retro computers. To join, open the invite link https://discord.gg/VxVYXMJZ9G from the site's homepage. You need a Discord account; the invite is the only step listed on the page.

What the server is for

The homepage describes TARC as a Discord server "for trackers and retro computers." That matches the rest of the site, which is the home of 8bitbubsy and hosts a ProTracker 2 clone, a Fasttracker II clone, source codes, and other projects.

If your interest is tracker software, retro hardware, or both, this is the community the site points you to.

How to join

  1. Make sure you are signed in to Discord, or create an account first.
  2. Open the invite link: https://discord.gg/VxVYXMJZ9G
  3. Accept the invite and you will land in the TARC server.

The link is published on the 16-bits.org homepage under the Discord heading, so you can also reach it by visiting the site and clicking through from there.

Contacting 8bitbubsy

The homepage states that you can find 8bitbubsy on the server if you need to contact him. In other words, the Discord server doubles as the contact channel for the site's author, rather than a separate contact form or email address being listed.

Notes and limits

  • The page does not mention any cost, membership requirement, or login beyond Discord itself.
  • No rules, channel list, or verification steps are described on 16-bits.org, so expect to learn those once you are inside the server.
  • Invite links can expire or be revoked by server staff; if the link above stops working, check the 16-bits.org homepage for an updated one.
