This actually looks somewhat intriguing.

I wish I had resources/time to dedicate to this, but at least I can follow along.

@larsmb Every time someone proposes IRCv3 as an alternative to Discord I'm reminded of this insightful thread from @ariadne

@andyprice I'm not sure that *needs* to be true for IRCv3 though. I could self-host one, and also have similar deployment/moderation tools. It doesn't need to be federated.

@larsmb @andyprice it meets plenty of use-cases. if you want *non-technical* people to use it, it isn't there yet.

Discord got people used to the idea that they can move from community to community without having to re-register.

*that* is why the federation aspect is needed.
