So seriously, what’s going to replace Discord? Everyone wants to leave, but to where?

And no, Matrix is not and will never be a viable alternative

The problem isn’t that there are no alternatives. It’s that there’s like 50 alternatives. Centralization makes us vulnerable, but it’s also super convenient.

There’s a reason we preferred reddit and now Lemmy instead of different forums with different logins for everything.

The biggest problem with getting off Discord is fragmentation of communities.

Fluxer is the alterative it does 90% the same thing. Has a sub model for the users who need a centralized option or large communities they can’t self host for

And it offers self hosting for free if you don’t want to pay the sub. Self hosting has no restrictions.

But Fluxer is one dozens of platforms that do what Discord does. If it was the only one, it would be easier to move.

But as it is people who are on 20 discord groups don’t want to deal with migrating to 20 different platforms, so they’re just staying where they are.
