Comment on Arc Raiders was accidentally recording Discord conversations into an unencrypted local game file
MajinBlayze@lemmy.world 6 hours agoI 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).
