Controversially, I cheer on the quickening of the inshitification of Discord. The sooner more folks are convinced to move away from that place, the better. I hope for a return to indexable and searchable old school forums (or their modern equivalents—Discourse is so nice).
Problem is folks won’t move, they’re too entrenched. Look at twitter, it’s still going ok despite having been a cesspit for years now. Or reddit, where some moved, but they moved to yet another enshittified platform: Discord. The amount of crap people ( especially the ones on discord ) will put up with is immense before they even consider switching.

I think when enough live streaming influencers switch to Revolt or whatever else, many people will follow.
Sad but true. A guy can dream.
Discord was shit from the beginning. Enshitification is useless here.
Sadly parts of my social group are currently migrating to discord.
You’re probably right, sadly.
I am not all computer, but isn’t it possible to make something like discord that is searchable like forums?
Anything is possible. But I’m also a grump who doesn’t like the fast pace of chat anyway, so I’m personally more interested in the forums approach.
