You mean a crappier version of Discord?
Whatever Twitter "reinvents" itself into, it needs to be in a social-networking niche that's not already served. Otherwise, their competitors will just have an edge-up on them.
Video games? Twitch will beat them.
Longer form videos? Youtube.
Short form videos? Tiktok.
Etc. etc. Twitter needs to figure out how to make money without simply becoming a clone of something else. Otherwise, the community just moves over to the already existing, better integrated platform.

- srj 4y agoIsn't discord itself a crappier version of IRC? You can always out execute.
- dragontamer 4y agoDiscord has message history, push support on phones, easier registration than NickServ, support for videos, live-streaming, voice calls and even group voice conferences. There's a lot that Twitter needs to do before they can get all these features. And if Twitter doesn't get these features, I'm not switching off of Discord.
