@sturmsucht yeah, fair. For support I'd have liked more places to use .. email :D But yeah, it weighs on me. The state of things suck. I wonder if Signal has enough traction that they could break things up assuming they built more threading and such. I gotta try Element for something again. Being vegan I do often make inconvenient choices but I prefer to do that for myself more than for others.

@lawik As people who know better, we should be more pro-active. And I don't speak about forcing every stranger to go vegan (vegan myself here), but not cooking meat for others when it's your own party Thought about Signal as well. No threads there (yet?), but also in Discord people don't understand how to use them. 🤷‍♂️

@lawik @sturmsucht Agreed on email. Who are these people who have Discord but not email? And if they really are that many, why do OSS projects need to force users onto Discord instead of having both? (I recently ran into a similar problem with an OSS project that refuse to take bug reports from people without a Microsoft Github account - and then discovered that someone else had reported the same bug on Github 2½ years ago).
