  • "People choose Discord because it's popular. That's really it. It's not got any features that make it uniquely well-suited to software development (and indeed it's actively hostile in a lot of ways). It's really just marketing, and it's disappointing every time a project chooses it (especially now that Discord is going to start showing ads)."

  • "It asked me for a screen name, and I picked one. It then dumped me into an endless captcha loop, which I just gave up on after 3 iterations. Maybe it didn't like my ad blocker(s). Who knows, who cares (I love rsync, use it religiously, but don't have much to contribute, so I'm not the target audience)."

  • "I seem to remember a guy that didn't like the closed source nature of BitKeeper and started to reverse engineer it. I wonder if that same guy could do something about Discord..." That's also Trigde's fault. And why we have git now.

  • "I would humbly request that you choose something other than Discord. They've started showing ads among other things and it's a closed platform. Matrix does everything you need from Discord, and the Matrix developers don't need to follow the whims of Chinese investors (i.e. Tencent)."

  • "We ask that comments be polite and respectful, and nationalism is not something that aligns with those values. It's also worth noting that Discord has something like 34 investors, many of which are U.S.-based."

  • "I've started using rsync, instead of scp, almost exclusively since the "let's make scp secretly sftp, and let us carefully make it totally unable to autofall back if it encounters a host that is incompatible" change. However a discord server is... kind of off putting."

  • Saying a Google search "defines" a person is a bit like saying a person's "physical height" is indicative of how accomplished (or bad) a person is. GAFAM or social control media do not define what people are or how many "friends" they really have.
