I hid the Talking Flower above our kitchen cabinets. This morning, I got home from some errands and found a note on the counter.

A digital illustration of the character Ralsei from Deltarune. He is wearing an outfit consisting of a black suspender skirt with buttons, a white dress shirt with short frilly sleeves, and a large straw sun hat. He is sitting on a rock in a beach environment with the ocean and distant land masses behind him. The sky is blue with whispy white clouds. He has one hand on his knee and the other holding his hat in place. His eyes are closed as he tilts his head, grinning happily.

In addition, please stop taking things at face value and do your own research. Random social media users are not going to be your one-stop-shop for all the information you need, including this thread - I don't know everything going on and I can still make mistakes. Just like everyone else.

The lead dev recently dropped the CLA part of their AGPLv3 license, and they want to replace all (potential) AI contributions with real work from real humans. It's far from perfect by any means, but it shows that they care about community feedback - a weirdly rare sight nowadays.

Fluxer: A chat app that puts you first Fluxer is a free and open source instant messaging and VoIP platform built for friends, groups, and communities.

Keep in mind that I'm biased about this, but if you're still looking for an alternative, I'm currently gravitating towards Fluxer.app. It's identical to Discord's UI, so the switch itself wouldn't be too painful.

I know it sucks to potentially have years of memories torn down in an instant, but at least give these alternatives a try. They have more of your interest in mind than Discord does, and that's a really low bar to beat. Some of them even have great features that I wish Discord had years ago.

Discord's not going to get better from here. It'll keep chasing the money and actively make the platform worse, until it becomes genuinely unusable.

Don't wait until after it's too late to make the switch. Make an early decision and stick to it. You're otherwise delaying the inevitable.

But no.

I've seen so many people putting in MORE effort into sticking to Discord - a platform that has many signs of a sinking ship, looking for reasons to be angry at REAL alternatives that could make a REAL difference - than actually putting in the effort to make a switch.

People are jumping left and right, blaming stuff being vibecoded (AI-made), age verification (which is what people are trying to get away from in the first place) or something being run by assholes. You can't deny Discord ISN'T all of these, so logically you'd want to jump ship regardless.

🧡 Regarding Discord alternatives.

The amount of misinformation, fear and things taken out of context is fucking insane right now.

if you don't mind paying for a search engine then I recommend Kagi, it's got AI stuff as well but it's entirely optional and goes as much out of your way as possible, they even have an AI search filter where it's community-supported and you can report AI sites

a text-based image with a teal gradient background, the top of the image reads:
"I don't always keep my website updated but somehow I can find the energy to make this"

below that are logos of messenger platforms and associated text vaguely arranged in a table, reading from left to right, top to bottom, in the following order:

Bluesky: @blizz.blue
the Bluesky logo has the following subtext below it:
"(you're here!)"

Discord: @blizzblu
the username has the following subtext below it:
"(keep in mind that we have to share a server if you want to send me a friend request, I prefer to keep the setting this way)"
below Discord is another text:
"Discord server (you will be manually approved):"
it also says "discord.gg/hFfSxrpZyv" in blue font color below that, implying it's a link

Fluxer: Blizz#0000
there's an arrow pointing at Fluxer, which has the text "currently preferred!" attached to it; it also says "(fluxer.app)" in blue text above the logo

Telegram has a QR code that, when scanned, leads to "t.me/BlizzBlu"; the text below the QR code says "@BLIZZBLU", and the link is written out in blue below the username text

Signal has a QR code that, when scanned, leads to "https://signal.me/#eu/yXJ9TYe_N8CMpGVmC6UVSkeYoYw2O3eeOlA79Rard7s9MhY-O8FHjJN4P_B0DR_L"; the text below the QR code says "@BlizzBlu.01", but instead of the link being written out below that, it says:
"(if you need a link for Signal I'm putting it in the replies)"

XMPP: blizz@kupo.im

Matrix: @blizzblu:matrix.org
below is a small subtext saying:
"(I don't check Matrix often so replies may be slow)"

the bottom right of the image has the following written out:
"also, in case you need a link to my NSFW socials (18+ only):"
below the text is a link written out in blue: "linktr.ee/HyperCutesy"

at the bottom of the image, written in a larger text size, it says the following:
"you can find all relevant links to reach me in the replies"
a smaller text below it says:
"(I might update this from time to time)"

I keep seeing folks say they'll just accept a Teen Friendly account on Discord rather than scan or ID and I don't know if I wanna mass normalize leaving NSFW pals out in the cold yet again. Especially with all the censorship stuff goin on I think we gotta stand with the freaks now more than ever.
