    Idk about them, but it’s a centralized, locked-down service that absorbs and holds information and data hostage like tomorrow.

    As someone who’s trying to completely avoid Discord, it’s quite frustrating how many communities and projects will put important information in their Discords, and nowhere else. You have to have an account to see it, and it also isn’t searchable in a search engine. It is actually quite terrible for pretty much everyone.

    Element/Matrix lets you peek into public chats and servers/spaces without an account, so it can definitely be done. They won’t do it though, because they gotta make you feel dat FOMO lol.



  • As an American who has to hear about shootings pretty consistently, I’d like to say the fear can be pretty justified. I don’t really know what it’s like to live in a world without guns and their presence, so it’s hard to imagine life without the necessity of them to protect yourself. It’s just one of those things that’s hard to understand unless you’ve lived in it I guess.
