    @Kushia @brayd

    installing a matrix client and creating a matrix account is exactly as complicated as installing discord app and creating an account there.

      It could install itself and I still wouldn’t use it. Nobody I care about is on there and inertia is important too. This has been true since the dawn of real-time communications platforms and isn’t going to change either.

        @Kushia 🤷‍♂️ I have the opposite situation, nobody I care about is on discord. So discord sucks? See the thing is if one matrix guy wants to talk to one discord guy, one of them needs to install a new app. And I think the world would be better if we all had more free/libre apps and less walled gardens, so I will strongly resist installing discord. Just yet another proprietary walled garden waiting for the rug-pull. Why? Just convince the other guy to use Matrix and over time our world will improve

            @Kushia Of course I am. Now I would appreciate if you didn’t come to the open-source community telling everyone how bad they are and that they are never gonna make it. That’s a pretty shit move man. Cheers.

              I never said it’s never going to make it, I said I care about what works for the majority with the least amount of friction.

              If you took that as a personal attack that’s on you.

                    @Kushia Not angry, but I would push against an opinion voiced arrogantly even if it was similar to mine. I guess I’m just not high when I’m posting.
