@Zaktor @mexicancartel i think i'm the idiot for wasting my time commenting in this thread

@Zaktor @mexicancartel i find it hard to even comment on the amount of idiotic things written here

i agree that there are a lot of pointless "free vs open source" discussions, but to say that open source and/or free software hasn't been/hasn't been successful is to have misunderstood what "success" would be in projects of this kind.

@Notsunya do you know the Rio terminal? you'll probably like it https://github.com/raphamorim/rio

@furrowsofar i'm not promoting discord, i'm saying that discord has been adopted by many open source communities

@thegiddystitcher great points, I didn't know about them
thank you

@H3wastooshort no doubt the issue is not privacy but open communication with a group of people
if the issue is privacy, discord is not the right tool

@batcheck I use the free version and it suits my needs: sending and replying to messages

I agree that at some point you need to "make money", IPO can kill the product if you don't have good administrators (managers/clevel) who think about the product but rather about "money at all costs".
