@wildebest One of these days Discord is going to do the bad stuff other centralized social networks are doing. It's only a matter of time and my guess isn't much more time from now.

It's truly amazing people aren't figuring this out. And it's not just open source now. I'm seeing even actual companies do this. (Companies could even host their own Matrix instances. Or even just stick with the tried and true "click here to send an email." Literally no excuse. And most open source centralization sites like Github or Sourceforge or etc have discussion mechanisms built in... No need even to go external even if you like being centralized.

It makes absolutely no sense and it's going to come back to bite quite a lot of us.
