We can still see several new opensource projects creating channels on #Discord instead of #Matrix and the reason might be that many ones are simply already onboarded on Discord and making it more comfortable to new users.
Should the general BoxyBSD Service chat be placed in…
| Option | Voters |
|---|---|
| Matrix | 28 (74%) |
| Discord | 3 (8%) |
| Both (bridged) | 7 (18%) |
oh. oh no.
not a fan of the forum topics thing #discord made.
Survey by Japanese News Site Nlab asks users where they are moving to from Twitter/X - Misskey wins with 41% (n=5119)
The final ranking is as follows.

#security tip:
unless you know your chats or audio/video calls are secure, DON'T say anything that you wouldn't say around an unsafe person.
does this restrict your speech? yes it fucking does. but only in certain spaces.
be the annoying person who suggests over and over again to set up a secure group chat with your fellow community members. almost every service is free to use.
remember that #Discord is not secure comms. remember that #Instagram chats, and activity there, is not secure comms. remember that anything owned by Meta is not secure comms no matter what the company says.
be too careful. it's better to be too careful than careless for a moment.
I have a #Linux machine with 32GB RAM and barely use 8GB of it. I run #Firefox with hundreds of tabs, open #Haskell, #Rust, and #PureScript projects all at the same time. Have #Telegram and #Discord apps running, and the memory usage still hovers around 8GB.Seems like I should be using Docker and Kubernetes just to feel like I'm using my machine to its potential 😆

#Discord in #Russland 🇷🇺 und in der #Türkei 🇹🇷 gesperrt | heise online https://www.heise.de/news/Discord-in-Russland-und-in-der-Tuerkei-gesperrt-9975926.html #SocialMedia #Zensur #censorship #Messenger #Russia 🇷🇺 #Turkey 🇹🇷
Jesus wept. I'd been feeling guilty about not interacting on the #Discord channel for my course. So I spent way too long writing a witty little post about the last assessment task. Hit send, and it disappeared.
I did get an alert, though: "You have received an automatic warning. Reason: Automatic action carried out for using a blacklisted word (nigg)."
"Niggling!" I said a thought had been niggling away at me! FFS!
Well, I'm not typing it out again from memory.
As for the #Russia blockade of #Discord, which continues to cause much outrage among Russian mil-bloggers, Roskomnadzor, regardless of its motives, is doing something here that the Russian MOD itself should do long ago. And not only Russian. Using a commercial, gaming chat room that does not have end-to-end encryption but is full of user tracking features for marketing purposes as a rule is not a good idea on the frontline.
Yeah, we know it is the need of the moment everyone improvises, but the popularity of this platform and the lack of an equivalent system designed for the military is a problem that every Ministry of Defence in the world should now study closely, and this is based on the Ukrainian military’s experience (and that ‘acquired’ from the Russians).
I don’t know about other countries, but #Poland has actually been a Google’s playground in terms of government IT over the last decade, just as, for example, Amazon has monopolised government IT in the UK. Commercial companies are able to provide convenient solutions for public administration under certain conditions, but the military is its own peculiarity, if only because of classified information or connectivity challenges.
That’s why it’s worth starting to take an interest in the technological advances in the realm of secure communications, which are rapidly developing in protocols such as Matrix or MLS (RFC 9420) because simply implementing multiparty chat is a high school-level task, but doing it with correct encryption and authentication is a separate field of study. And that’s exactly why business and gaming chatbots like Slack or Discord simply don’t do it at all.

#Discord told me on #HackerOne that this isn't a security #vulnerability, so cool, I'll talk about it publicly.
You can disable 2FA¹ on another person's account if you get access to their phone momentarily.
All you have to do is create a new account and put their phone number in as the login; if you verify the code, it strips it from the other account with no warning, and they can't take it back.
So have fun I guess?
¹ SMS is not #2FA
