    The popularity of this tool is bonkers. Even conferences sometimes “create a discord”.

      It’s easy to use, it’s fast, it’s cross-platform, it’s free, it’s capable of streaming E2EE video at high resolution and low latency to dozens to hundreds of people at the same time. That’s not something you can say about many competitors.

          Yeah, requiring the data of the user is not free.

            It’s free…as in it doesn’t cost “money” (not that yours has any true value left anyway, sucker) but it does cost your soul and feeedom…

            …How do I use that varition of text size???
