   stop using discord as a wiki
   stop using discord as a forum
   stop using discord as a file host
   stop using discord as a storefront

   discord is an instant messenger
   it is a centrally hosted cloud service
   it will eventually shut down
   it has no archival functionality

   moving away from IRC was a mistake
   anti-discord action

     Gday
     I recommend using IRC + Mumble instead of ((( DISCORD )))

     I recommend using DELTA chat instead of Telegram/Signal/Whatsapp

     I recommend using anon file hosting
     eg transfer.sh for files
     eg dpaste.org for text

     My video on Delta Chat
     https://www.joshwhotv.com/video/.73TrMQ/delta-chat-is-awesomeness---05-march-2022?

     We traded
     Security
     Anonymity
     Privacy
     for
     ((( MODERN EASE OF USE)))

     ((( CENTRALISATION))) always works against our best interest

     Solution
     - Localism
     - Community
     - Commonality
     - Truth
     - Built to Last
     - Open Source

     Meanwhile, the vast majority of IRC is centralized on (((Libera.Chat))).
     I mean, hosting an IRC server is one of the easiest things in the entire world, no need to rely on a hostile corpo restricting speech that you too have to follow!
     I'm hosting my own IRC server even.

     Good video about it. Anyway, it's also used by completely psychopaths. It would be good for containment, but Discord has infected the entire internet with cancer, so it doesn't really work for that either.
