Ugh, Discord. no thanks. Otherwise, looks cool!
Why not IRC!!!
People keep forgetting about this awesome protocol which has existed for years.
Lack of voice chat, message history, media hosting, screen sharing, or just about any other feature most people actually want these days. The people who want a live, purely text-only service are a stark minority anymore.
XMPP would be the best choice at this point in time, as it doesn’t suffer the downfalls of Matrix (though even Matrix would be better than Discord).

lmao
Cool! I might join as this is another avenue to get my music out to more audiences, but I agree with the other comment, not discord please.
I’m surprised they aren’t using Matrix, considering it’s a Fediverse group.
After seeing a team of fedi software developers drop their Matrix bridge to their Discord after the total lack of moderation tooling resulted in an extremely transphobic spam wave, I for one am not surprised.
Another team I’m aware of also dropped Matrix for other reasons, but went for Zulip instead, which is also open, but more collaboration oriented a la Slack rather than community oriented like Discord, which probably would not fit what the group in the OP is looking for.
Zulip
Zulip is great, I really like there thread system, much better than Slack
Same. Matrix is great.
Well go tell them that!
omg ellie?
