Let's pretend "a software" doesn't sound as stupid as "a traffic".

I hate discord as much as anyone else but it's where most people are already going to have an account. People don't want to create brand new accounts to ask a single question. That question will just not get asked, The question could be asked on Reddit which may or may not end in a good result. It could take hours, weeks or even days. Discord is already there, and if a discord community is large enough you may get a fast and knowledgeable response. I can see why people like discord, I just don't see any better alternatives or something that is as convenient.

You can join the matrix room https://matrix.to/#/#typst:matrix.org

instead of discord, people should use revolt which is a foss clone https://app.revolt.chat

ditch discord!

make me

I'm going to make a project and, "Join our IRC community @ Rizon"

I think most of the problematic toxic mods from Reddit have started infecting Discord too. It's been getting worse lately.

I personally don't mind Discord. I do in fact like it. (If you want to convince me otherwise, please don't)

But I really hate that OSS uses discord for their lack of documentation. I understand that documentation is hard and boring to create, but I don't want to go on some discord to ask a bunch of questions that thousands of others have before. Instead I will try and find something using search engines and I will read the open and closed issues. If I don't find anything, I give up on the software.

Where Linux?

we have a discord and a matrix server bridged to it

Is there a good federated "one click" insta community replacement for discord yet? Or rather, what is the most likely to evolve into something like that? I looked into matrix chat and elements.

Know any good Autistic communities in Matrix? I'm in the market, I love mine but it's in Discord and they ain't moving.
