I think the only way to get an open-source Discord is to recreate discord (their backend).
granted it's a slow process but it can pay off if done right. I contribute what little I can to the project, as my Typescript is not the best and Discord knowledge even less.
Discord has a monopoly on the organized group chat platform, there isn't a competent competitor, or at least none I'm aware of
I truly don't have a problem with ads being in a free service. My anger will be based on how annoying they are when they roll out.
We need FOSSCORD!
The website will ask for a user streaming to do something in-game or play a specific game while others are watching to probably earn something either in-game or in Discord.
I feel this is fine, the "streamer" can decide to do this tasks or not. And can disable receiving the tasks at all in settings.
Yeah I mostly agree, I don't like them adding ads but the way they're doing it seems not too intrusive so I'm not the most bothered
