If they REALLY want it to be like discord, why not use Revolt?

https://revolt.chat/

I don't understand.

One that really ticked me off was that "the legend of zelda ocarina of time" pc build "ship of harkinian".

I have never had such a tough time installing something. You have to do everything through their discord and it was a complete fucking mess.

Just use matrix. Revolt is just giving your data to someone else for no reason. Like you could technically self host it but it's not federated like matrix

I mean using matrix or any chat service is giving your data to someone else. What's the distrust with revolt?

Looking at their git repos it seems pretty above board: multiple open source clients by community members, APGL license, docker images and backend repo all pretty accessible in one place.

No hate on Matrix of course, but theres a few people who seem to have the ick for Revolt and I wonder if Ive missed something.

I don't know why, but I can't sign up for revolt. They never sent me the verification. Now they just know 2 of my email addresses making me double fucked if a data leak ever happens.
