Until someone matches the spend / effort that Discord puts into their user onboarding you will never meaningfully compete with them.

Maybe, if there were OSS/FOSS options out there that spent 1/100th as much time or effort as Discord does to onboard/migrate users, onboard/migrate community managers, and allow simple community management as well as automation, you'd have a snowball's chance in hell of convincing anyone to listen to your argument.
