Oh no… I wish I could move to e.g. matrix, but lots of people refuse to leave discord… Am I just going to be cut off?

What’s matrix? Been hearing that more recently

Modern replacement of IRC, it is an open source chatting platform which admits some limited federation. You can look into it on matrix.org

Discord is already shit, and this will make it worse.

Discord has a monopole in its nieche market. Teamspeak and Mumble are basically non-existent. Pretty sure the IP won’t be too bad.

Yeah, next reddit incoming

The problem is discord pretty much killed teamspeak culture and replaced it outright.
Reddit didn’t really replace forums and migrating away from it won’t be as hard. Lots of communities are based entirely on discord. Good riddance tho cuz they’re a shit company and people need to explore other options. Discord has totally cornered the markets for voice calls and easy group chats.
