64bitheroDiscord’s new blog post shouldn’t change your mind on them at all.
arinYeah the mass majority will just accept whatever the rest of their peers accept, look at how many people still use facebook, tiktok, Instagram, twitter, reddit even with their yearly news about data harvesting selling to ads and now AI. Unfortunately discord is such a big package for gaming.
Tiktok isn’t that old and that it was able to break into being part of category of apps people have a hard time deleting does give hope that not all hope is lost for a new app to join the ranks.
Will just take time for features to match discord and a question of if it’ll be a new shady corporate app that gains popularity.
TikTok got its hold mainly by being extremely addictive and using predatory dark patterns to keep you scrolling. That and being less censored compared to other corporate social media. While we can try to strive for the latter (with reasonable limitations), we shall not do the former, even if that means less users overall. “Avoid success at all costs”.
