   @theorytoe people leave discord the same way they leave any shitty platform, say you will and then don't actually do anything because you make an excuse as to why you can't leave. The most common excuse is your friends won't leave so you don't either

     @sam @theorytoe or they leave discord, try everything else (which sucks) then go back to discord with a renewed love for it. It's happened with fedi after all.

     @sam @theorytoe i dont know. matrix is far better than XMPP definitely, but still not up to par with discord. Discord already developed too many features that'll most likely never be implemented on other platforms, and people on here already made posts pointing out why no one that uses discord regularly would move to anything that doesn't copy it well or is at least reliable. FOSS devs don't have the ability to develop an alternative.

     @mischievoustomato @theorytoe XMPP and Matrix are both hot garbage and somehow infinitely better than the steaming pile of rancid shit that is Discord

     @sam @theorytoe one time I convinced all my irl friends to use matrix for a little bit and they hated it so much they almost cut off contact with me

     @pettanko @theorytoe @sam yep. the problem is that this place is on the same tier as bluesky but less insufferable: rejects of the mainstream platform and some that genuinely like the place

     @pettanko @theorytoe @sam not really, it's nice tech and it connects people, but the people on here are kinda samey and the cool people end up back on X anyway. I've seen a chunk of them already.

     @mischievoustomato @theorytoe @sam It just seems like when you have a small user base splitting them up seems like the worst possible move. I mean obviously the point of federation is to still be able to talk to everyone but lol blocklists
     
     But yeah I see what you mean by samey too. People come here specifically for a reason so it attracts a lot of the same type of people.

     @mischievoustomato Yeah. Though throwing everyone together in one big pot also has its own problems.
