I've convinced few of my friends to use Matrix and it has been a really nice platform and now I prefer it to Discord not only because it respects user privacy but also because it doesn't have the nitro bs

    That’s great to hear. Somehow everyone and everything is on discord now and I really am not a fan of it what with all the pop ups and flashing shiny things to buy lol.

    I’ll try to get my smaller groups on matrix

    you can run a bridge. I forget that friends are on discord sometimes bc it's so seamless, and they can't tell I'm not sending messages from discord either. I do have to use the discord app for voip tho
