I've pondered: if you were given an envelope, written inside it is the deepest and darkest secret of the universe/humanity, would you want to read it? It could say that we're just in a simulation, it could say all politicians

Am I the only who really doesn't think this is a big deal? They had an outage, they fixed it very quickly. Life goes on. Talking about the outage as if it's reason for us to all ditch CF, then buy/ run our own hardware (which

I still use Atom purely for its simple easy git UI (while coding in VSCode). VSCodes git UI, and all others I've seen, are a disaster in comparison. I want a simple, easy UI - in atom its exactly that. If I need more I'll just typ

Myself and all my bot developer friends think he's being a bit of a crybaby and wanting things his way. Discord gives very very nice allowances and tools to developers, I wish more companies were even half as good as discord is in th

Logitech MX keys (wireless). I used mechanical keyboards for years and switched to this and am way happier. The important thing for me, is that pressing a key requires very little effort/force - for putting less stress on your body. I

I think people should be treated equally, and not given better or worse treatment based on their race.

I like Stallman. He's a man of principles, we need people like him to stand up and advocate for the things he does. But his ways are extreme and not something that's reasonable for many people.

I generally agree with you here. However I think there's some nuance, are you suggesting discord add a way to export all the data of a server (copy my messages), so you can move it to another platform? It sounds like potential privac

I'm not surprised they don't want to "un-wall" their garden to satisfy a truely tiny amount of people. The "walled garden" is an argument that goes in circles, what if we all like our walled garden? Apple too,

My opinion, but I think this a Stallman-esque, overexagerrated and unrealistic thing to say. Discord is by far the best chat/voice client, any alternative you try to mention, I'm sorry but it's inferior in atleast a dozen way

I don't understand the outrage, especially because most of the outrage is over NFTs, which as far as we know currently, this doesn't involve NFT's at all. I also highly doubt anyone is seriously going to move from Discord, th
