    The people downvoting you are the ones who eat up the enshittificaion. Discord is unusable for anyone who wants file or screen sharing. Skype, by contrast, has screen sharing that’s smoother and higher quality, and a file sharing limit of 300mb, all free for the last decade.

    But yeah most users are barely computer literate so Discord keeps humming along.

      Oh, I know. It’s squarely aimed at fucking tools who don’t even own a PC, which is why it has that “mobile first” design ethos even though their mobile apps are absolute trash.

      It doesn’t matter how many times this happens, people would rather get fucked by corpos than spend time learning anything.
