I would love to if all of the most helpful specialized communities didn’t all use it.
I can’t even get my friends or family to use Matrix/Element, let alone the masses.
Trust me, I want to make the full switch, but if I’m hanging out on my fancy open source server with no one on it, what’s the point?
I will agree that anything akin to Facebook or Xitter isn’t helping achieve anything, since they don’t provide communication that can’t be found elsewhere (social updates, memes, event invitations, etc), but for communities like this specifically, there’s just not many other places to go.
They also sell that number, all your chat logs, voice calls and media to AI training companies.
Dont be a loser, dont use discord.

Sadly there are a lot of communities that are only on Discord.
And it’s so annoying! Bring back forums!
