This is completely counter productive to growing Lemmy. I absolutely despise discord. Look at the network traffic it generates and tell me wtf they are doing. They won’t tell you. Their business model will leave you completely dumbfounded as to how they exist. Everything shared on the platform is lost in a black hole unavailable to the outside world and everything shared is a privacy nightmare. Posting this, pinning it here, and locking it is one of the biggest trolls possible. It pisses me off every time I log in. “Everyone else does it” is the excuse of idiots. Discord makes absolutely no sense to anyone that actually cares to look into it, read the user agreement, and ask sane questions about what they are doing.

    We’ll see about matrix but that would mean more work for us too.

    That makes sense, which is why I suggested another team of volunteer setting that up, and then proposing it to the LW admins, who would then decide if the solution look good enough for them to be officially endorsed?

    That would allow the people pushing for Matrix to start working on a solution that could potentially satisfy everyone.
