Comment on Discord Alternatives, Ranked
hornedfiend@piefed.social 1 day agoI can’t even create an account on Stoat yet. New account confirmation emails take hours to arrive and by the time they do, they are already expired.
This is not a discord alternative yet and not be for a long time most likely.

They’re having issues with their email provider due to the hug of death effect, they did not expect to get so much traffic so fast

I understand, but they are losing the train I guess. People are giving up easily when they need a solution fast.

Their loss. They have at least a month to migrate, probably more before most users get forced to verify, there is no rush. That and an ad-free hobby-run project like Stoat doesn’t gain anything from a massive user increase unless it correlates to an increase in devs or money.
