Just do a matrix space
https://matrix.org/docs/communities/getting-started/
I've used matrix and spaces before. Nowhere close as convenient as a discord server. In fact I even had a matrix to discord bridge so I can get the best of both worlds until I had to hide all my matrix channels because of uncontrolled spam
Meanwhile the OCaml IRC chat gets spam from Discord Crypto bots due to bridging with that proprietary platform.
Ok. And?
Open source projects improve over time. Corporations improve being able to make money over time, eventually leading to enshittification.
I know which one I'll support
Does Matrix have pluralkit yet?
