I don't think people on this sub use it, but it's great news for us. The worse it gets the likelier people move on.

More, you need to convince the that this shit being inevitable is why you need FOSS.

    Ads are not enough reason to stop using it for the majority. You need to offer more than just ad-free. You need to offer the same or better adoption, features, and overall user experience. Discord has these all nailed.

    Discord has literally like one feature matrix doesn't; stickers. And it kinda has those. Stop talking shit and try it out with some friends. This is so much more important than just chat, and the hour is getting late as fuck.

    The big thing is the network effect. Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
