“can you recommend an alternative?” no. that’s why I’m so fucking angry.the key problem is that nobody wants to run a box
they want to use a service
that ends directly at discord
mastodon has the advantage that it actually successfully decentralised, and 75% of users can and do tell eugen to go whistle
it has the disadvantage that you can see the wires and plumbing and worst, the guys loudly telling you that the leaks and sparks and flames and outages are features akhully

“can you recommend an alternative?” no. that’s why I’m so fucking angry.@DrCuriosity @t_var_s @tux0r @zzt discord basically worked in ways irc didn't. if you don't understand that, you don't understand the question.

IRC's fragile spanning tree structure is the root problem but i don't know how we'd do cross-tree links without all sorts of weirdness
there's probably a solution involving terrible hand rolled cryptography that also doesn't solve the problem
(as with so many such problems)

“can you recommend an alternative?” no. that’s why I’m so fucking angry.@t_var_s @tux0r @zzt fsvo. distributed irc was shit in extremely tired ways, somehow combining the worst of decentralised with the worst of feudalised. it only "works" on a single well-run server, and we're back to the original problem.
i met my wife on irc, i have a fondness for it. it still doesn't answer the question.
