I run several communities on discord with hundreds of people in them. I can’t just leave.
I want to leave. but I can’t force people to move to a new app just for one community.
its a complicated issue for those that use it for communities. we are working on trying to move off.

Thats the problem. You can go through all the pain to move to an alternative, but eventually it enshitifys too. You could go open source, but those solutions rarely have the polish to get the large quantity of users needed for niche communities. And most users won’t understand why they are better anyway. So it’s just a horrible cycle.

Since the 90s every few years you have had to move. You get over it eventually. There will be stragglers that will always hold on to the old one, they will be the last to the new platform. It’s happened before and it will happen again.
