It was hard to get everyone off aim too but it happened.
Then again there is always IRC.
You SHOULDN'T have gotten people off AIM. AIM was awesome!!!

Unfortunately this is probably going to be a buy for me.
Seeing how the market reacted to the enshittification of Reddit, means that Discord probably has a lot of upside on the share price. The parallels between the two services can’t be ignored.

I can't wait for Discord to enshittify so that lazy devs can't say "join our Discord for updates and support!" anymore.
Hate that shit.

Start making your plans for a replacement because it will be going to shit soon.

Now is the time for Matrix to improve usability and whatnot, because I think that's the most credible replacement.

Simplex is cool, but it's more of a Signal/SMS replacement than Matrix. It doesn't really do rooms as you might want, and discovery of peers is pretty manual.
Cool tech, just not a Discord replacement.

Although, I'm honestly surprised that there isn't a Fediverse equivalent/Alternative to Discord.
https://matrix.org and https://element.io are the discord equivalent.

I really wish Matrix had been more successful, but it has some pretty core problems that prevented it from gaining more traction.
It fell into the same trap as XMPP, though perhaps even worse, with a focus more on its protocol and specification than a single unified product vision.
The reference server implementation is slow, and using a language not optimal for its purpose, with alternative server implementations left incomplete and unsupported.
It took a long time for them to figure out voice and video and for it to work well, and the "user flow" still isn't at Discord levels.I've rooted for Matrix for a long time, but as a former XMPP evangelist, to me the writing on the wall says it isn't suited for success either. I'd love to be wrong, but I don't see a way through.

We used it literally til the servers turned off.

I tried revolt a year or so ago and it was pretty rough

It seems unlikely that will stop, at least with any speed, TBH.

Apparently at least one person is working, fairly successfully, on a server clone. I think it was this one, but I only know about it from one YouTube video I watched weeks ago.

Another tough but not impossible migration for my crew, but there isn't a good enough alternative yet. Plus they finally got around to fixing streaming on Linux, apparently, and I'm about to swap back once my new m.2 is installed.
