      It’s even worse when open source projects point you towards their discord for questions and support.

      It’s just a black hole for information

        I hate that so much, especially when GitHub lets have your own wiki. It’s just lazy devs.

            Naw, they just like to see that 60-70% unanswered rate for problems and issues. Makes for the best community support.

            Highest effort, lowest reward.

            It’s still more like a townsquare with everyone talking than like a bunch of thematic pubs, so - doesn’t feel the same.

                I meant - structured however you want it. Different sites, not different Lemmy instances.

      Discord is trash, had issues with a KBDFans product, something as simple as a search of a forum would have given me the solution. I had to talk to a human to get the required information. They sent me a link to a firmware to download and all was good.

      If I was able to search a forum it would have been a 2 minute job, but I wasted someone else’s time, on the other side of the globe.

      please do show me a single messaging platform that can easily and sanely house a population of >50k people on the same server, and allows that for absolutely free, while providing reasonably high quality voice messaging and streaming with negligible latency

        While discord doesn’t necessarily cost money, it for sure also isn’t free. In fact it’s the reddit problem but way worse. A proprietary non-searchable database with all content fully licensed to discord including the right to sub-license. At least, Reddit had an API and is still searchable through their public facing http. I mean I get people don’t want their group messages readable by everyone, bit for large groups, it makes sense.

          No it does not.
          The Group chat is a chat.
          The public chat is basically a never ending forum post with 100 pages.

        Why would I ever want that?

        I can’t think of a single instance where I want to be messaging 50k people at once
