This is completely counter productive to growing Lemmy. I absolutely despise discord. Look at the network traffic it generates and tell me wtf they are doing. They won’t tell you. Their business model will leave you completely dumbfounded as to how they exist. Everything shared on the platform is lost in a black hole unavailable to the outside world and everything shared is a privacy nightmare. Posting this, pinning it here, and locking it is one of the biggest trolls possible. It pisses me off every time I log in. “Everyone else does it” is the excuse of idiots. Discord makes absolutely no sense to anyone that actually cares to look into it, read the user agreement, and ask sane questions about what they are doing.

    But then, why not stay on Reddit with a Revanced app?

    Why go through the hoops of using an emerging platform for a link aggregator, but not a chatroom platform?

    For me it’s either both or none, which was what I expressed in the above comment.

    I love Lemmy to death, I post here a lot, but I still know that objectively, Reddit using a Revanced 3rd party client is better: more content, more people, better mod tools.
