    Discord is perhaps the most unnecessary and readily replaceable service and they don’t seem to realize how short their time is

      It’s absolutely possible to build a discord replacement

      The real issue is convincing people to move

        there already exist discord clones like fluxer and stoat, but not a lot of people are there yet

        I even found a replacement called Fluxer that let’s you import your server and all their channels, plus the livestreams don’t run at 2fps like Matrix but my friends still are too lazy to move, it’s frustrating.

          in the embedded jitsi based calls you can set the screen share fps in its own settings. if your server uses element call, I don’t think you need such a setting?

      Is it though?

      I don’t mind making another account, but I’ll have a hard time convincing many of my friends.

        They managed to move to discord at one point, they can do it again
