3rd party discord client?
Once upon a time, ripcord was my favorite to use, unfortunately its been dead and dormant for over 2 years now. Id love to know if anybody knows any similar client (for example: be it in having custom design, or being super lightweight)
(yes, i know, you dont have to say i should use matrix or something else)
You're viewing a single thread.
How about a third party service that's separate entirely? Matrix may be what your looking for
read it again, slower this time
I swear fossbros lose reading comprehension skills faster than Tumblr once you ask for any kind of software recommendations
Not really a "foss bro" issue, more an issue of privacy guys not understanding software-freedom as its own concern separate from privacy concerns. Same with all the "third party clients" that are just wrappers/mods for the first party client.
There are actual third party discord clients, I use one myself. And, while discord is certainly a terrible service that we should try to lessen our dependency on, it's unfortunate that we have friends and communities on that service and we can certainly use discord with a free client while we make the transition. For me, I use an IRC bridge wherever possible, but bridges generally need to be set up by the "server" "owner" so it's not always an option.
Reading comprehension might be a general problem on reddit and reddit-offshoots (which lemmy certainly is) as I see fans of proprietary software going into free software communities to recommend their favorite proprietary apps. It's certainly not limited to "foss bros."
