       Can we just stop using Discord and go back to using forum sites? I realize it's (comparatively) super easy to set up, but y'all realize it's just going to bite us all in the ass as soon as someone at Discord decides they need to turn up the profit ratio? It's a ticking time bomb. The whole thing is going to follow the enshittification process, and anything of value on there is going to be lost/sold/destroyed.

       @malcircuit I don't think anything will change. The info in Discord is never well organized, so expecting them to take the time to organize and publish it on a platform so it won't be destroyed when Thanos clicks his fingers is wishful thinking :cry:

       @malcircuit "someone" just needs to make setting up a Matrix setup as 1-click easy as setting up and onboarding to Discord.

       Indeed. The same happened with reddit.Or skip forums and go for Lemmy.

       @malcircuit What about an #NNTP based solution? #Usenet is still alive. Serious question. Alternatively, one could create a separate hierarchy with NNTP as the back end. Only frond ends and apps would need to be written. The protocol is extendable, so it's possible to do new things with it if clients are coded to support the extensions.

       @profoundlynerdy @malcircuit #usenet could claim to be the original #fediverse - discussion groups hosted on a distributed network of independently-administered servers, no one corporation or institution in charge.  Ok it has become infested with spam, piracy and porn, but it's not so hard to filter these out.  🤔

       @CGM @profoundlynerdy @malcircuit if you use one of the new non-binaryservers and also block google there is like 0 spam. https://sybershock.com/#usenet eternalseptember is a popular one

       @rek2 @profoundlynerdy @malcircuit Hmm, "non-binary" #usenet servers - what pronouns do they use??
