I'm not lazy. i have matrix up and ready to go. the issue is I can't just force 200+ people to just up and abandon a platform where all their stuff is for one community on that platform.
in order for discord to truly die, it needs a HUGE exodus. as right now, my communities are too well integrated.
basically discord needs the same mass exodus that Xitter had to bsky and the elephant one. its the only hope communities have to survive discord dying.
we're not being lazy. we're trying to not have whole online communities get upended when discord finally kicks the bucket. (and it will. soon.)
I foresee it more as discord keeps operating fine but with even more embedded ads and trash, and people will become numb to it. Hence ipad baby generation being clueless with how it used to be with very little ads on the internet and corporations continuing to profit off of us.
