You know us: at Dyne, we've never been the type to spy on our own people. We're a community, not a dataset. But Discord's new age verification rules force exactly that: scanning IDs at the door like we're entering a nightclub, not a conversation.

Discord keeps proving it can't be trusted with our data. Their October 2025 breach was just the latest reminder. Handing them mandatory age verification isn't protecting anyone. It's handing the keys to the
castle to people who've already lost them once.

Come find us on @matrix It's encrypted, decentralized, and ours. No IDs, no surveillance, just conversation.

in reply to Dyne.org foundation • • •What bothers me is that it's way, way behind Discord. Obviously like everyone else I want off the platform, but the alternatives all have significant drawbacks. Lack of basic features like Oauth or unifiedpush, apps that only connect to the main instance, obvious AI spaghetti code on the github, etc etc.
I'd like Matrix to be it, but it needs significant targeted investment to get to parity.

Care to share the alternative of your choice?

in reply to Dyne.org foundation • • •The closest I've seen to being a drop in replacement appears to be Zulip. The drawback is that push notifications must go through their service for apps, no UnifiedPush option, and over 10 users it's paid (with a excemption for non-profits/clubs). From a privacy standpoint that's a problem imo.
Going to experiment with it a bit.
