  Maybe, but let’s deal with one crisis at a time

    But isn’t that the wrong approach?

    If you want to choose something better, shouldn’t be ‘enshittificationability’ be the main point you want to address? That is the reason discord is doing most of the bad stuff. Proprietary software is about enshittification.

      No.

      The main point that needs to be addressed is the requirement to upload your face or government ID. This exodus has nothing to do with Discord not being Open Source.

      I mean the issue at hand is discord enshittifying, TeamSpeak has been around for a lot longer and didn’t do that (even when they were in discords position market wise) which also mlght be because their funding model is actually sustainable.

      Sure they might enshittify later down the line anway but it’s an alternative that’s here now and solves the ossue at hand

  I mean, mumble has gotten super good at audio, but I don’t know about other features

  True. At least it’s self-hosted. I just hope some real alternative to Discord comes soon.

  Should still be a massive upgrade to discord in terms of how much you’re getting shafted
