[–] penquin@lemm.ee 21 points 2 years ago (2 children) I don't get why we are always running after our abusers, we have so many FOSS alternatives to this shit. And please don't hit me with that "discord has more users" bullshit. I'm so sick of these fuckers abusing their powers. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] acastcandream@beehaw.org 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) spoilerasdfasdfsadfasfasdf permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TheButtonJustSpins@infosec.pub 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) Revolt also actively discourages you from self hosting because they want to get the network effect going, and you can't do that if everything is splintered. I have yet to find a Discord alternative, and I've looked a few times. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] tissek@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago An alternative for me is pretty much useless if it's not an alternative for my groups. Those I use discord with. It is more likely we migrate to a corporate solution than a foss one. permalink fedilink source parent [–] progandy@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago* There could be a middlegreound if revolt implemented a central openid user registry, presence indication and e2ee direct chat plus self hosted communities using that login (and maybe optional local registration). And maybe a community overview for public communities. permalink fedilink source parent [–] BreakDecks@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago Anyone arguing "Discord has more users" on here can just be reminded that Reddit / Twitter has more users than their fediverse alternatives, and yet here they are on Lemmy, and probably Mastodon too. A better world is possible. permalink fedilink source parent
