I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

Am I too old that one of these should've been Skype?

I abandoned my chat to make a new one in Discord. Despite them complaining about Skype daily for years, suddenly they loved Skype.

Humans are silly. Either way, it's been Discord, Snapchat, and regular text for half a decade now.

I didn't known Skype still existed and i thought I was getting old.

Sorry dude.

Don't have friends. Problem solved.

I remember when WebOS had unified messaging. Those were the days. 👴

Matrix with bridges can help consolidate them. Some managed versions exist like Beeper and Element. Been slowly moving to that. Will eventually self host.

Yeah... This 1000 times... It DOES bother me to install all that shit. What doesn't bother me? Installing a bridge on Matrix and having everything in one place. Hell I've even started adding matrix to my linux scripts. I get notifications about script status in dedicated spaces on my single chat window.

I'm literally SMS away from doing 100% of the chat clients I use for personal usage... And seriously debating on bridging teams for work usage.

I've even gotten my wife onboard. That, to me, speaks about how frustrated normal people are with having many different apps as well.

Element has bridges to some of the services

[-] hoya@lemmy.ml 9 points 9 months ago

You can just use Matrix with bridges

Let's just go back to IRC and XMPP. The modern "chat" landscape is dismal.

[-] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 8 points 9 months ago

I have all of them. Plus linkedin. This is madness

[-] sag@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

Too much relatable

Am I the only one who agrees with this non ironically?

I like how my notifications are segregated by friend lol.
