    Sure are a lot of tech companies seemingly speedrunning their self-destruction right now. Is there something in the water in the SF?

    On a more serious note, Discord has always been mediocre. Makes me sad that the third-party client(!), Ripcord, is more or less abandonware. Being able to monitor just the specific channels you’re interested in is infinitely better than being forced to use servers wholesale given it’s near impossible to keep an eye on one at a time beyond notifications – which are clumsy at best. But for how useful that is, not having access to things like spoiler tags, most voip (and all video related) stuff really limits its practical use.

    Oh well.

      If this were free software, someone would probably have already picked it up and continued development of it.

      Higher interest rates have meant that investors now have better things to invest in. If you aren’t profitable now, you need to get profitable soon because VC money is going to get a lot harder to find.
