@ai6yr (okay last thing I promise): I am absolutely in favour of using irc, xmpp, linux and all that, and I do. but I also use discord, because I know people that won't use IRC, ever. because it's weird and old and text-based and they'd have to learn new rules and how the whole decentralized thing works and why would they? noone they know (except me) would even be there. @miah

@posiputt @ai6yr @miah Additionally, IRCs culture is not very welcoming and at times downright gate-keepy.

@andrej @posiputt @ai6yr I think this varies greatly. It was certainly more true in the 1990's but I wouldn't say it is today or even 15 years ago.
