XMPP is lighter than Matrix. Both are better than Discord. Tell your friends to switch
time to create friends then.

None of their implementations compare to Discord, they just don’t do the same thing. People won’t switch.
Spaces could very well change that, but until then you’re just gonna get disappointed users if you mislead them in to thinking there’s an alternative to Discord.
Both protocols work well, but they are not like Discord, they are different. Like you said, people that get pulled over to Matrix or XMPP by friends that claim it is a Discord replacement will be mislead and probably dislike the platforms because of it. If they instead were pulled over because it is an alternative with a bit of a different paradigm, then they’d probably enjoy it more.
Spaces and room v8 on Matrix are promising but server and client implementations still need to catch up. At the moment, only Element and Synapse fully support them
