• "Alright guys, it’s time to leave Slack for a better alternative!"
  • Proceeds to migrate to yet another proprietary and centralized piece of software.
  • It happens again.
  • "Alright guys, it’s time to leave [insert software name here] for a better alternative!"
  • It happens again, again.

  • It’s what’s going to happen. It’s what always happens. And on a side note, by the way, I guaran-fucking-tee you that it’s what’s going to eventually happen with Discord as well. I have zero doubt about it.

    Do you know how to break the cycle? Use open-source software. Use standard protocols that aren’t locked behind some greedy corporation.

    Why not take the features from Discord/Slack and integrate it into a new IRC or Jabber protocol?
