Potential Discord Server
Potential Discord Server
Was wondering if any of you would like a Discord server for the community or would it be worth waiting a bit?
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm going to suggest Matrix (or an old school IRC) over Discord at this point. No reason to direct from lemmy back to a closed commercial ecosystem.

2 0 ReplyI've never heard of Fosscord - why that vs Matrix?
1 0 ReplyFamiliarity, if anything. Since it's basically Discord but self hosted and open source, I think a lot more users will have an easier time with it.
1 0 ReplyI just got on Matrix recently, and in my limited use it seems basically Discord to me? At least if you use Element Web UI I guess.
1 0 ReplyShrug. I wouldn't be against Matrix, per se.
