Maybe, but when you’re looking to make discord users migrate to a safer/saner app, you need the new app to be as discord-like as possible

I understand the impulse, but I think it’s wrong for a few reasons:

Discord didn’t become popular because of its ui. It became popular by lowering barriers to entry.

I don’t think you’ll get a critical mass of people by being “discord but less evil”.

A better ui or ux could be a genuine selling point, or a way to distinguish it

  You’re entirely right, I’m just presenting it in terms of familiarity, or entry point. People who where used to discord would have an easier time with a discord-like UI and functionalities, but nothing would keep them from exploring other matrix clients in the end (in the case of Commet).
