Not the same use case at all, I think, even though some communities were indeed misusing discord for their needs

I think it serves part of the role of a Discord server, but ultimately it doesn’t really serve as a chat server or place for people to share screens etc.
It is one piece of the puzzle but it alone won’t work for the majority of people’s needs who are migrating a Discord community.

90% of my server list would function better as a forum. Those functions aren’t part of the use at all. Discord is misused by a ton of communities.

You are completely out of touch with the needs of literally everyone whose needs are slightly different than yours.

The thousands of similar posts I’ve seen across the Internet for years, including all over the fediverse almost every time Discord is even mentioned saying exactly the same lead me to believe that it’s a pretty widely felt belief. It’s almost as bad as the linux fanboys constantly proselytizing whenever Windows is mentioned.
I think you might be the one that is out of touch with reality if you’ve managed to completely missing almost every previous discord debate on the comments of articles. You might want to actually look around for a bit instead of clearly assuming you are the correct one and trying to claim others don’t know.

PieFed is a reddit clone.
Discord communities need a discord clone. It’s not rocket science.
Say matrix and I’d have agreed it’s good enough for a lot of people’s needs… But so is IRC. And that’s never been good enough to migrate Discord users.
The only way to kill Discord is a Discord clone like fosscord/Spacebar or some of the other similar projects.
You don’t replace Twitter with reddit and you don’t replace Discord with it either. That clearly, CLEARLY has not met the majority of users needs or we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

I’m just saying that a lot of Discord communities would function better with a different structure. That they are on Discord only because it’s ubiquitous and free, not because it’s the best solution.
Not sure why you seem to want to insist that is somehow not even a possibility.

No, I totally agree with that part. I wish people would move. I wish it was possible just to convince them to use a slightly different model of things. I’m absolutely disgusted in people’s inability to adapt or adjust to even the slightest changes. I’m definitely not advocating for them.
But PieFed is really a reddit model. People using Discord for chat and that type of more instant communication you really need both PieFed and Matrix.
Sorry if you’re the one I claimed was out of touch, I shouldn’t talk to people I don’t know like that. Hope I made my case.
