Discord isn’t exactly known for generous file-sharing limits, still, the messaging app offered a 25MB limit to free users. The company has now updated its support page to reflect the upload limit for free users has been lowered to 10MB.

    Is there a competitor that can do that?

    I say this with all due respect: Who gives a shit? If you were foolish enough to dump your entire community into Discord alone and don’t have an off-ramp, that’s your own fucking problem.

    EDIT: Also, Matrix already has a bridge for Discord and has for a while:

        Shouldn’t it be easy to switch, like going from Chrome to Firefox?

        Say you have no idea how any of this works without saying you have no idea how any of this works.

        That’s how we get out of Discord hell.

        Why is it our job to fix the problems of a private, profit-focused company?

            Honestly the onboarding for a lot of alternatives to various to popular platforms/apps (Matrix, Mastodon, etc) seems to be the biggest impediment to more adoption of those platforms and apps.

            By onboarding here I mean the communities that use those platforms recruiting others to join them and help build communities up.

            Like goddamn if that users comment was the first time I’d heard of Matrix it would have turned me away for sure.

            Not to mention Mastodon having a reputation that proceeds it.
