This is incorrect on very clear, unambiguous history. quakenet was fine but all the kids were on discord so left we did. I still hate discord because where it fails is specifically because it isn't FOSS (or at least, with a public protocol), for example, lack of ability to save chats like you could with IRC.
- maverwa 5y agoThe point is that they will not leave discord for „a FOSS discord“ because they‘d gain nothing. For the average user, discord won because it had a lot of features and properties that where better than what was there before (voice & chat combined, not server management, etc). You and me might care about software being FOSS all day long, but the masses don’t. For them it’s just not a thing. I‘d guess „selfhosted servers“ actually is a step backward for the majority of discord users.
