On the flipside, when we had the Discord age verification thing a few days ago, I saw a lot of Slop “alternatives” being promoted. All with bold claims and shiny at a first glance. But the chance of them going anywhere is slim to none. And the quality of the ones I checked was crap. So I kind of empathize with the argument. Like half of the new stuff is a trap, and you really need to pay attention.
I guess the question becomes if people mass migrated to those platforms would they grow and improve or remain shitty, which is always hard to tell. But small projects without many people are always going to be…at best janky right out the gate. Which discord alternatives did you feel were a trap, so I can avoid those ones?
The biggest one I saw was https://fluxer.app/ it has all the right marketing and investing, but also it had a single dev dumping assloads of code per day, but somehow it wasnt ai coded at all. I’m still watching it, because it got a lot of funding in the last push to see if it failss or if it actually goes well.

I wouldn’t trust anything important on it though.
