It’s that 98% of its user base won’t care. They will just do whatever and continue on. Too many companies have invested in discord being their point of contact. It’s the same as windows 11 killing windows 10. Everyone just moved on. Yes, you will have a few niche users quit, same as the few who moved from windows to Linux. But not any significant numbers to make any of these companies worry. permalink fedilink source parent
