    To add to this, for those dogs that are behaved, I don’t know that. I have never met your dog before and assume all dogs are hostile until they prove otherwise. Just because you think your dog is okay with strangers, what happens if I happen to have my own dog on a leash who is not okay with strangers dogs approaching them.

    Your choice to keep a pet should not be the burden of others to determine the safety of.


  • Take a look at this absurdly long list of apps. How many have been created at this point and half of them have overlap with a quarter of the list. And yet, from my experience, every single one finds a unique way to fall short of the basic functionality I expect from Discord. And I’m definitely not counting anything available through Nitro.

    All of the ones that claim to be full Discord replacements have had incredibly difficult and multi-layered setups that don’t follow any regard for the ability to easily remove if it doesn’t work for you. Their instructions will start with ordering a VPS or will assume that you want to host on the public internet first or do wacky stuff like setup their own reverse proxy without me asking.

    Mattermost was almost there. It even has voice and video sharing. But they don’t have voice lobbies. (Not counting the janky plugin) They all just find something that makes my friends not want to use it. Many of these projects are like 2-3 features away from being able to convince my friends to use them but until that day comes, the Dicksword will win.
