Discord goes too far, we need an alternative that is better than Discord.

And no, Matrix is nit even close to discord in my opinion.

Matrix is the best choice we have. Embrace it or make better because we can only use what is out there.

[-] ReakDuck@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 months ago

I understand your view, but its still nothing that a community will love to adapt like discord as discord has too many features missing in Matrix.

If you want a successful and big community outside of coorp shit, then we need to create something new and better together and not put the load onto an individual person who wont be able to make it profitable.

@ReakDuck so why not work on adding those features to Matrix, instead of reinventing the wheel in another closed platform from scratch? The network effect is by far the most important factor when it comes to any chat app, or building a community. Matrix solves the network effect by being interoperable, having bridges.

You're entirely right. Idk from where this mindset comes and how to reduce the mindset.

But xdbk has a meme to this
