Yep most of the communities I like are on Discord nothing I can't do.
most of the communities period are on discord
even the one that really have no business being in there and really should be on a forum
One of the interesting features about Matrix is that it supports some degree of interoperability. The Beeper phone app, for all the fuss about its ill-fated attempts to bridge to iMessage, can connect to Discord for basic no-frills text chat.
I refuse to install Discord on my phone but use Beeper for DMs and group texting.
