@privateger Hot take, to claim to be a replacement for Discord, there is no need for beeing 'good', given how worse Discord is. Everything you can get is better, even this is far from good.
@f2k1de Have you ever moderated a public matrix? It is -literally- impossible to do.
Discord has many flaws, yes, but you'll be hard pressed to find something that works better for public spaces. There's a reason they have hundreds of millions of users and also managed to choke out Teamspeak back in the day.
@privateger@f2k1de discord is a ux mess, the time i used it was riddled with dark patterns, the notifications are basically broken, it's a resource hog and this hasn't gotten better.
basically everything is better than discord. even irc and teamspeak, which it tried to replace.
@maxi@f2k1de@privateger after all these years (8 to be exact) of using supposed "ux mess" riddled with dark patterns, i still find easier to use as user, and while i dont really mod shit, it still a breeze to just yeet a whole ass raid compared to whatever you get normally on matrix clients (which is close to nothing to be fair lmao)
