🐿️I think the thing that we don't like about fluxer more than the whole AI thing is just that the UI and UX is literally just discord again. they don't even try to do anything different like, they showed patch notes earlier and they looked exactly as discords look. it's a carbon copy
🐿️it's stuff like DMs on both sites saying *exactly* "This is the beginning of your direct message history with John." with the username bolded like, you couldn't even rephrase it even a little?
🐿️ChatGPT vibe-code me a client like Discord. Yea, the whole thing, if you could, thanks. Yea, I'll wait

@roxy from what I understand it was made by some 22 year old who said he was inspired by what the discord engineers accomplished.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a passion/learning project that people just started jumping onto after the latest discord scandal

At least that's what I got from his blog post

> "During my senior high school years, I worked on early prototypes of what is now Fluxer. My final graduation project became that prototype, along with a technical report detailing what I'd learned from studying Discord's technical blog posts and architecture, and how I applied those ideas in practice."

Personally, depending on how the self hosting version turns out, that's where my friends and I are aiming towards going
