Stop doing Discord
- capitalists were not supposed to own your community
- Years of hanging out yet no real-world use found for sending your private data to be sold to advertisers
- Wanted to leak private data anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that; it was called “turning off ublock origin”
- “Yes please search our chat archive for answers to your question. it will certainly remain up forever and not get deleted when the shareholders realize it’s not profitable” statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged
Look at what discord admins have been demanding your respect for all this time:
- task manager screenshot, discord using 97% of CPU
- discord making too many automated requests and getting throttled
- crash screenshot
“3rd-party client? lifetime ban”
They have played us for absolute fools
Based on this image macro
The best that I could find was that there was an 8 person limit and that it wasn’t as straightforward as Discord at all.
It’s still nice to see them trying and hopefully one day it’ll be a viable alternative to Discord itself.
The best that you could find?
I am personally unconvinced it’s not a viable alternative to dsicord already. But yes it will always be improving and it will be good to see how far it continues to improve.
