      because it is?! if your goal is to have a non-indeaxable support forum, at least use matrix which is far far better than the horse manure that discord is.

        Ah yes let me switch to a chatting app that is missing half the features from discord with a worse UI. Epic!

          Meanwhile Discord misses half the features Matrix has. It’s almost as if they’re different projects with similar, but different goals.

          One tries to be a flexible, interoperable, and secure protocol for communication, that’s free for anyone to implement and use…

          The other is a for-profit company that cherishes its centralized nature and far reaching control, allowing them to sell you random bells and whistles, collect your data unobstructed, and lure in investors and advertisers.

            Barely anyone cares about any of this. This stuff will never outweigh the features and QoL Discord has over everything else.

          Features such as being locked in to a bloated proprietary client that doesn’t even respect your date format settings? Or having to give your phone number to a shady company?

        I’m at a point where I wish our support forum was at least on Discord, the majority of my community is pretty old but it spans down into a handful of Gen Z with more Millennials and Z coming in as the Boomers get out. Even so the main forum is a Facebook page. Splinter groups using WhatsApp, Signal and iMessage. It’s not like the older gen is technically inept, for the most part, it’s just they’re entrenched and moving them would take a massive, easy to use software that is far superior to FB’s viability. Personally using Discord and it’s seamless jump from PC-Laptop-Phone is nice, admittedly I’m in the same mindset of those in my groups on FB as I haven’t tried anything else.

          I finally got our drone community on discord but now they are all gamers and don’t want to talk about drones anymore
