  Not centralised for a start. Think of it like ‘federated Discord’.

    Also, IRC doesn’t constantly try to throw “upgrades” (Nitro) in your face every single moment that it gets.

    I have used both, aside from the monetisation (Nitro), Discord has a lot more functionality. Not sure it’s ‘correct’ to say that people are stupid because they prefer a 21st century version of IRC.

      Matrix stack would be the 21st century equivalent. Discord is just another Skype - entirely a proprietary product that you don’t operate yourself. Fine for corporate use where people don’t care about longevity because it’s not their problem or interest, but trash for everything else.

        I just searched for “Matrix stack” but I’m none-the-wiser, what is it?

        Right, you don’t run the thing yourself at a program level, but you can create and moderate channels as you wish, which is what most people want. Sounds like the Windows v Linux argument, just because a lot of people prefer something doesn’t mean we have to shit on it. Discord seems to work well with lots of integration (including on consoles) and fulfils its purpose pretty well from what I can tell.

        trash for everything else

        How?
