It needs to be a big wave of migration, rather than convincing one individual at a time. Discord needs to shit the bed while there’s a tolerable/better alternative we can all agree on.

I promote software freedom.

Is it worth the risk to just stop having a Discord. Users that strongly care will use something else?
I’ve heard a reason for choosing Discord is the good moderation tools. I don’t know enough to comment on that so I just hope that free software alternatives improves their moderation tools.
When you value software freedom for yourself and others then it’s actually pretty dull and obvious to express concern. It’s like a coworker just started smoking.
You can’t stop any random person sending you DMCA, even if they don’t actually own the copyright. If you can avoid the sincere and likely to win DMCAs then you mitigate some of the work. In a big company that’s no work at all, by myself that’s my limited time alive wasted on outdated foreign law.
I can’t speak for other’s hosting peoples comments but I would rather avoid getting DMCAs or C&Ds in the first place.
What signs of legal trouble are you referring to?
I would like to know the answer too.
Wish it was easier to just install stock Android on a new phone.
If my review is so valuable why not pay me for it. A real “paid review”.
It’s harder for regular folk to move and they may not (yet) have an issue with what we may see, but regular folk would tolerate anything and tolerate it forever? They just have a different line which companies cannot cross.
I think (and admittedly, I hope) every proprietary software is destined to shit the bed due to the irresistible temptation to make the user’s experience worse for increased profit. If there’s no alternative then users have no choice but luckily many of us will even create useful software just as a passion. You may be right that we just have not created software aimed at them because it’s other tech people who give feedback/contribute.
