We absolutely should.
Focus on our development as a community rather than feeding the giant US corps.
the ACI allows the bloc to select from a wide range of retaliatory measures, such as revoking the protection of intellectual property rights or their commercial exploitation, for example, software downloads and streaming services.
Holy hell that would be glorious to revoke protection of intellectual property of Big Tech.
Would make european companies probably loose IP in the US. IP would just be local and not mean much anymore. I think there’s other better responses
oh yes 🤞 ban of X and Discord, ban of X and Discord, ban of X and Discord 🤞
X would hit really hard, but Discord? I don’t see it.
discord is a US company owned by Tencent a chinese company. A leak happened a few years ago of the contract between both of them. It gives Tencent and CCP full access to user datas including private messages… So you ban Discord in Europe, you hit both US and China :)
yeah that would be nice. I wonder though what could replace Discord? My friend circle heavily relies on guilds for everything, and tons of channels and threads and voice chat/video chat. Do you know of a solution for that?
Matrix is the discord equivalent. It’s open source, decentralized, with E2EE (it’s used by French and German diplomats for their communication so diplomatic level of security), voice and video. Just like moving from reddit to lemmy, it can be rough at first but it work like a charm and version 2.0 as been released few month ago improving performance of the protocol. A video of the last update:
I dont think matrix is a discord alternative(but it may have changed since the last time i used it)
Revolt is closer to discord, but it has its own problems
Mhm but I don’t see channels. But I guess tons of custom chat groups would be the answer to that. Or what about threads, aka a sub chat inside a chat/channel.
It’s nice to see that matrix has A/V now.
It will, when the situation arises, take some time to move toward it. It’s certainly a more favourable way than MS Teams or Slack.
You can have Spaces in which you have Channels again
Hey, do Facebook too!
What’s the deal with discord? I live under a rock
