Easier said than done. All your friends on discord? Can't leave.

Turn it into a group 'stick it to the man' effort?

I don't have friends,.no problem for me ๐Ÿ˜‹

"All your friends on discord? Ok, just go use this other random service and still have your friends on discord"

use the service, and tell them to use it. just like how they made you use discord. and you can whine every time they refuse.
