Sure, like IRC but with a better interface,
- TylerE 3y agoAnd no netsplits/nickserv insanity.
- Operyl 3y agoOr people purchasing a holding company and proceeding to take over the entire volunteer ran network a few years later. :)
- eddythompson80 3y agoLuckily since there is no expectation of an archive, migration is fairly straightforward if there is an alternative. If there are no alternatives, I guess they can try IRC ;)
- RadiozRadioz 3y agoBetter? Sure, for you maybe. Overwhelmingly the word I'd use to describe Discord's interface is "one". There is one interface. It's an interface that most people seem to like, but we've lost an important freedom there. It's against the EULA to modify your client or use an alternative one. If with IRC one can have any interface, I would not call Discord's better.
- eddythompson80 3y agoMaybe it changed, but how do you share a screenshot on IRC?
- RadiozRadioz 3y agoUse Pidgin or The Lounge and do it like normal. Whether we should be using text chat clients as FTP clients is another issue, XMPP is better for multimedia messaging.
- voyagerfan5761 3y agoSome modern clients (or clients-as-services) build in image/file sharing.
