The problem is that there isn’t really anywhere to Exodus to. I already know people here on Lemmy are going to say Matrix but that’s just not an option. It’s trash, the protocol was designed by idiot neck beards that have never heard the term UX. Pretty much everything was done in a way that while technically speaking is efficient makes it unbelievably tedious to actually use and in some cases just outright annoying ensuring that users will never want to use it. Most recent example is forcing device verification, it is technically correct, it is better from a security standpoint it is better from a verifiability standpoint. But for the average user who could not give less of a shit about that it is nothing more than something that pisses them off and annoys them every single time they open the application because despite the fact that they should be remembering at least in my testing it almost never does and I have to put in my stupid key every single God damn time especially if I’m using it in the browser.
Teamspeakers trying to rebuild itself to be more Discord like but it’s still in early beta and not at all ready for it so that’s not an option, and everything else is pretty much either just as shit or just as likely to implement this tomorrow as Discord

The whole internet is adult-by-default, so why are we doing any sort of age verification?
But please Discord, keep ruining the platform, cause an exodus.

Hoping discord pulls a windows and enshitifies so completely that people finally abandon it
Except trans children. Don’t think of them. Apparently.
