in case you're wondering - yes, globally

@lashman I know this as an alternative, I don't know if that's helpful

Stoat

Stoat is the chat app where you are the main character.

“We do expect that there will be some sort of hit there, and we are incorporating that into what our planning looks like,” Badalich says. “We’ll find other ways to bring users back.”

And that's the point where you'll stand up from the table and leave the room.

@helpsterTee yuuuuuuuuuuuuup

@lashman i wonder if camera mode in death stranding will work for it or if they've caught onto that yet.

I was curious how this would affect the bridge bots but it seems like this is mostly for the stage feature right now so I'd assume they'll still work while discord applies this footgun. (my only real experience in discord in the past 5 years is through the matrix bridge)

@raptor85 i'm sure we'll find out soon enough, hahah

@lashman They are going to lose a LOT of users for that.

[lashman@mastodon.social]

@andycarolan we can only hope

@lashman Continue reading with a subscription.

@iamdtms awww dang

[iamdtms@mas.to]

@lashman Ba boom.

[andycarolan@social.lol]

@lashman Yes. I mean, as the article mentioned, they suffered a data breach last October. While they are now using a different vendor, how long until they leak? It’s such a massive unknown.

[lashman@mastodon.social]

@andycarolan i give them a few months tops

[andycarolan@social.lol]

@lashman Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

[raptor85@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@Bara_Coded @lashman unfortunately with stoat they decided against any federation protocols,, it's very small and fragmented. It's much more of an alternative for mumble than discord.

[lashman@mastodon.social]

@andycarolan hopefully really really bad for them

[andycarolan@social.lol]

@lashman I… I get the impression that you don’t like Discord much? lol

[lashman@mastodon.social]

@andycarolan whatever gave that idea?

[andycarolan@social.lol]

@lashman I must have a sixth sense

[bara_coded@bara.gallery]

@raptor85 @lashman indeed it is small, there aren't a lot of communities or users. I don't think it was developed with the capacity to integrate with the fediverse. Is there another, fediverse-based Discord alternative?

[lashman@mastodon.social]

@andycarolan clearly! haha
