I mean if you could point to anything remotely as easy to use and functional as discord then this joke makes way more sense.
All you need to do is take a look at the working versions of these apps (slack, teams, etc) at some of the main features to see how crap the competition really is.
https://app.element.io (Matrix) is still VC funded, but at least its underlying protocol is open source and you can self host
I had a terrible experience using matrix.

While people still resist the Fediverse they will happily keep jumping from walled garden 1 to walled garden 2 because they lure them with convenience. But Discord is already starting to go to shit.
Have you’ve seen the username change? It is just wierd how things are going now. They are now slowly moving to having Twitter-like handles instead of the 4 number discriminator usernames, which means that you now have to claim your username and people are already starting to get spammed for their cool username. I just don’t understand why.
I’m still not allowed to choose usernames without the discriminator
It’s supposed to roll out gradually based on when you’ve created your account. I also haven’t had the chance yet and I signed up in 2021.
I think it also priorizes Nitro users
Walled garden makes it sound like a place someone maintains for communal pleasure. Lobster trap makes me picture someone caged for sale. Delicious lobster.
