Can we please unpin the proprietary off-site/off-network promotion of discord

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.

  • You sound very angry at a piece of software. You don't have to use it, and you can block the community/user that posted the thing you don't like.

    Take a breath and don't worry about it, for real. Not everything in life is for you, and you won't like everything you see, and that's fine. It doesn't make your feelings invalid, but you can't let it get to you < 3

    • This is an admin post. A mod blocking admin is unsustainable misalignment
