There are a lot of people out there who uphold privacy and security as their own personal tenets. Many ToS or privacy policies do not meet their standard and thus, many tech workers or tech savvy hate things like discord. To each their own. Try to understand why and look beyond the “discord bad” to learn more.

I am fully aware why people go “Discord bad”. But weak arguments like “you miss out on all the contributors that have too bad of a PC to run Discord” do not outweigh the fact that Discord is a million times better for building a community. You’re suggesting to make the experience worse for 90% of people interested in a project to appease the <1%.

I wish it didn’t have to be this way, but it is.

I see what you’re saying. A similar comparison might be that that they don’t use discord just like how we are here on lemmy instead of reddit. I’m guessing reddit has the 90% of people still.
