Then it sounds like all that’s left to do is get 150 million people to use them.

Then don’t brag about being 100% FOSS supporter…

Also 150M people may use it, 8 billion people can’t index it or do an advanced search, so fuck them.

You are literally doing exactly what the meme was about lol. A discord alternative may simply not be a viable alternative for their needs, if no one is using it.

First of all, public forums are a thing, they work flawlessly and provide information to people without needing to sign in, which is my top issue with Discord. And why I actually want FOSS.

Among other things, some I already mentioned, Discord isn’t even all that big, you can say Facebook has 3 bil users, let’s all go there.

But the meme is about people who can’t escape, avoiding Discord is not only possible, but specifically for support advisable, and I would argue that it’s not even that hard.

I personally have used Discord about three times before I just selfhosted Jitsi. Never understood why people want to use it so much. For chat I use Matrix since 2018.
