       Not a single student preferred mastodon from discord. Anyone has a link to an introductory article which could show why it's better to use mastodon? I know mastodon is more like twitter replacement, but still...

       @szopen im not sure we are even talking about comparable things here.. discord is for voice chatting in my mind, mastodon is for text based social media updates.. similarly one is more about realtime chat the other is more about statuses.

       @szopen A lot of students are tranny-loving faggots, so it stands to reason why they would prefer Discord.

       @szopen 1) Discord is very different from Mastodon as it is focused on real time chatting which also includes VoIP and video chatting. Beside it is a mainstay for communicating with each other during the play of multiplayer videogames. This is also why young generation is very much into discord.2) Mastodon/Fediverse is highly populated by nerds, developers as well as people who hate big tech which basically means that a lot of people here have a relating niche or ideology. It's not a place everyone will like, also being open-source and federated isn't much of a cool stuff to everyone.

       @freemo @szopen agree two different things. Discordcis chat plus texting a group of people you know. Mastodon is meeting new people with similar interests via social media.

       @szopen @freemo a better alternative would be matrix.
