oh yes 🤞 ban of X and Discord, ban of X and Discord, ban of X and Discord 🤞
X would hit really hard, but Discord? I don't see it.
discord is a US company owned by Tencent a chinese company. A leak happened a few years ago of the contract between both of them. It gives Tencent and CCP full access to user datas including private messages... So you ban Discord in Europe, you hit both US and China :)
yeah that would be nice. I wonder though what could replace Discord? My friend circle heavily relies on guilds for everything, and tons of channels and threads and voice chat/video chat. Do you know of a solution for that?
Matrix is the discord equivalent. It's open source, decentralized, with E2EE (it's used by French and German diplomats for their communication so diplomatic level of security), voice and video. Just like moving from reddit to lemmy, it can be rough at first but it work like a charm and version 2.0 as been released few month ago improving performance of the protocol. A video of the last update:
Mhm but I don't see channels. But I guess tons of custom chat groups would be the answer to that. Or what about threads, aka a sub chat inside a chat/channel.
It's nice to see that matrix has A/V now.
It will, when the situation arises, take some time to move toward it. It's certainly a more favourable way than MS Teams or Slack.
You can have Spaces in which you have Channels again
I dont think matrix is a discord alternative(but it may have changed since the last time i used it)
Revolt is closer to discord, but it has its own problems
Hey, do Facebook too!
What's the deal with discord? I live under a rock
