they are going public
Soon we can all buy Discord stock
and ride it into the ground
Discord stock is one of the most likely things to just go down
right after purchase
Fuck it, back to skype (rip)
Actually, lets go back to Robs twitch chat
he does not use it most of the time
so we are safe to use it 99% of the time
realistically, Discord needs to either shed 99% of the free shit they enable
and probably also aggressively sell user data
what they should just do is
be honest and say "we're going to bring the platform to total shit unless this funding goal is met. please donate"
Just slap a banner ad across the top of your screen
The Wikipedia approach
smart people will adblock
I think some service should unironically do something kind of like that
"buy this service AS A CHOICE otherwise we will make it dogshit like you know we will"
Discord goes down, we can only all commit to meeting up once every year or so
make sure you write down every topic you would've posted throughout the year
we have to do the book clubs irl...
Pirate, tiny. polu and I meet in a coffee shop to discuss how good that rape scene was
we have to wear hanny masks though
In a coffee shop, yeah
so our reputation isn't at stake
Replying to reorruatrnte #toughbrook we have to wear hanny masks though
Mask? No, I'm going in the full Hanny King suit
who is zyton again
he wants to eat you
or rather, watch you eat people
i can only know 3 new people at once
right now i only know dr kribbles, pyrrhic gades, and uhh...
wait fuck maybe it's only 2
Zyton may also be in prison by now
does not know me
2026 UK laws aren't exactly in his favor
Zyton replacing shuckle as our UK rep is funny
as gay as it is, Discord is hard to replace only because of how low-friction it is to use
irc would not work for most people here
you need to least big hurdle
there are decent ways to get markdown text/voice/video/file uploads to coexist
but it's not user friendly
matrix is the best choice, as previously stated
I think we have 1ish+ year(s) before discord nukes itself
to think about this though
what's the breaking point though
when they ban the server
appak
yeah, if they ban the server again, and it is clear it was not a 1 off thing but a huge crackdown
