It should be matrix. I doubt anyone who really understands would be using discord. It was probably just copied from the reddit one.
Came here to say this ๐ It's really not hard to get started or use, folks just drag their feet on it for some reason.
Change is annoying, folk don't like having multiple platforms to talk with. A network is only as strong as the number of participants in ot, and discord has won that by a long shot. I'd love to see Matrox grow myself.
but bridges exist, why not satisfy both communities? So both matrix users & discord users can join from their own platform
When I started using Matrix I definitely thought "wtf is this", but after 5 minutes and when I got invited to channels it all makes sense. Much prefer the privacy focused matrix
