Yeah, we truly despise that if help is wanted/neeed or changes have to be done for some things it must be done on discord? Why? I don’t want to join a ‘community’ just to ask for something, I’d rather just open an issue.
So we refuse to join, and just open an issue and hope it’s noticed.
Ha, when that is even possible. I’ve seen github pages where the issue tracker is disabled and the readme says to give bug reports on discord.
Discord was supposed to replace and combine IRC and TeamSpeak, instead people are misusing it a “replacement” for issue trackers, forums, wikis, and even distributing their files from there, and it’s infuriating. And eventually the enshittification will cause Discord to fail, and suddenly over a decade worth of discourse and projects will just be irreversibly lost as nothing said there is indexed by any search engine.
I am persistant though, I will find some way to contact them that isn’t discord or other closed proprietary tech, like email, heh.
Yup, we can only hope.
Sad for all the lost projects but hopefully they’ll learn to not place all their faith in big tech that will get enshittified and take everything with it.
