Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing
-
Nooo, enshitification. I've only recently stared using it.
What do we use instead? Is Matrix the only option?
-
I knew this day would come [gently pats 15 year old mumble server].
-
I may have to go back to IRC, hell even running my own fucking server
-
I guess it's time for TeamSpeak to make a comeback
-
Oh no, its over. Discord going to become unbearable in a few years tops.
-
saving this for later, thanks
-
For a private voice group, could you use something like mumble? It's still out there, doing voice well.
-
"No. Fuck you. Pay me. Now pay me more. Now enjoy ads. Pay me again. We're now introducing fees associated with the privilege of paying me. So pay that while paying me."
-- approximately everything

Everyone tries to cash-in before the AI balloon pops-up.
-
Time to try Matrix again.
-
Don't worry, once it goes public it will get worse and easier to replace
-
it has voice and video... though to be honest I've never used it.
-
Its already unbearable with how much is gated behind Nitro. Its gonna drop off and quick once the IPO hits.
Search history will be the first thing to go, like Slack it'll be a pay thing and that's gonna be a big hit.
I miss IRC.
-
FOSS alternative that looks and feels the same.
-
reddit is just reposting X , and truth social posts for the political posts.
-
and also the enforced heavy moderation, will silence crtiics in favor of the most "ad-revenue, traffic groups too" thats whats happening with reddit.
