Discord defends itself against efforts to stop piracy on its platform by saying no to more invasive data collection. Even though Discord isn’t exactly known for privacy, this is a great move for its users. What are your thoughts?

Discord sucks and nobody should use it.

What's a good alternative that allows easy instant message, voice and video calls, and makes it easy to group my friends by game?

I have been using revolt, going to setup my own server once I get better lol, last 3 times have been a cluster fuck to get it working. I got mattermost working the first try but it's a slack replacement not discord.

I get that they have different target user base, but honestly, what’s the difference?

[–] femtech@midwest.social 3 points 1 month ago

Roles and permissions. Slack and mattermost is just allowed and disallowed to each channel.
