As a gamer, Discord is my most difficult to replace anti privacy platform. It is “the social media for gamers™” after all.
I’ve tried Matrix many times, and every server I’ve joined has felt dead. I couldn’t find many gaming centric communities there either, and absolutely none that had any activity.
Do you still use Discord or have you successfully replaced it?
I still use discord with friends, matrix if more for foss software comunitys imo (kde, godot etc). As lkng as Discord doesn’t test their luck with people like Reddit does people will stay there. That was a case with Skype.
