… Tenor gifs…? Seriously…?
Anyway, stop using Discord. Learn to set up a Matrix server.

Signal would be terrible for that. It’s designed to be more like Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp

I can barely even use matrix. They need figure out their UI and UX before it can become a serious option.

I spent multiple days setting up a matrix server, getting Livekit working and dealing with that abysmal dogshit matrix authentication system (MAS)
I joined a voice channel and something broke, I cannot leave it
That was six months ago, I was still apparently in that voice channel when I gave up and deleted the whole stack a week ago

It is a serious option. You were probably using a shitty client.
I would recommend Sable, as it’s very Discord-like. I’m sure others have experienced good clients with features perhaps more specific to an anime community.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, but I’d agree Sable’s good for newcomers and decently functional enough.

I’m guessing people don’t like doing the effort.
Hell, I’ve learned people aren’t willing to change or try anything even if it’s been made into a one-click solution.
