Discord, the social chat app popular with the video game community, has met with investment bankers in recent weeks to discuss preparations for an initial public offering as soon as this year, two people familiar with the talks said.
The people, who requested anonymity because the conversations are confidential, cautioned that the talks were still exploratory and that I.P.O. plans remained subject to change.

That explains all the AI crap they've been chasing for a while now. They've been trying to juice up the value to make it look appealing to potential buyers because you can basically slap "AI" on anything and it instantly shoots up in value.
Discord is effectively dead if this goes through.

Welp, there goes the neighborhood. If they want to do an IPO they'll probably enshittify the hell out of the platform and jettison all remotely raunchy communities. Because nothing says "good investment" than a service that just drove out a fair chunk of its user base.

What's the best alternative software to gear up to transition to? I'm pretty pissed because they finally got decent integration for PS5. I was playing Space Marines with a couple friends, one of whom is playing on PC, so we've been able to crossplay with voice chat.

Enshitification is on the horizon...

Maybe Revolt or Matrix?

They also put adds on the screen and have been shilling their apps for a while now. There is not even a button to go to the webapp on their mobile site, you have to switch to desktop mode just to get in.

On the horizon? They crossed that horizon a long time ago. It's just going to accelerate now

I want to adopt Matrix but getting started is the hardest part

The hardest part of using Matrix is basically everything about Matrix. They're an unholy combination of Slack, Discord, and Signal... And not very good at any of those things

Getting my friends to shift over is a pain in the ass for sure

I see everyone suggesting revolt but what about teamspeak?

Any suggestions for an XMPP client?
In an ideal world I want something that has Discord's "drop-in" chats where you don't need to "start a call" anywhere, you just join in. My biggest gripe with Element's voice chat

I have a friend who is just so damn stubborn when it comes to mixing up their "comfortable" things if they aren't the one to come up with the idea
Very frustrating

It was hard to get everyone off aim too but it happened.
Then again there is always IRC.
