But neither have seamless voice chat/screen sharing, which is a staple of Discord that users are very used to.

Matrix does not have seamless desktop sharing or voice chat, and has a drastically higher executive cost. It also does not solve the information silo issue.

The fediverse as a whole is promising but likely needs to mature a bit longer. Theres a lot of potential issues that have yet to be worked through.

I know a straight cis femboy who wants to take HRT - I dont fully understand it, but I respect its his right to do what he wants with his body and identify however he pleases.

Some people just want more customization options I guess

This is a fantastic read. I wasnt around for the prime days of forums but I did experience them a bit.

I'm becoming extremely concerned about the number of topics and projects that are migrating to Discord. My main issue is that it is not and never will be publically indexed, and among other problems, is itself a corporate walled garden we consider to be "one of the good ones".

I really hope we find and establish a "low executive cost" solution before the next time Discord fumbles (which is inevitable) and we can claw some of that activity back.

But people are so used to seamless voice and video chat nowadays - and that's a technical hurdle that AFAIK, no open-source self-hostable projects have come close to solving.

Yeah, this is a big part of why I stopped using discord recently. Not yet sure of any alternatives but leaving is step one.

Yep. Thats the real reason I'm excited for this movie.

I feel like having a bunch of A-list actors kinda takes away from it.

Wouldn't that be a sail by?

Kill your lawn. Replace it with native flora.

Woah, new regular show?

Oh, I need this thread. I've been all over the place ever since Mint shut down.

They fired on them after they had surrendered to Ukrainian forces.

Unconscionable.

What the hell? Every bit of resume advice I've ever gotten has said to use PDF to protect from potential formatting errors due to display differences.
