[sarcasm] Who could have ever seen it coming? [/sarcasm]
Honestly, the writing was on the wall for a long time, it had no clear business model and was a mess. It was always going to go this way and I tried pointing out that it was a bad platform but nobody either cared or believed me. Whelp, looks like I was a Cassandra yet again.
Hope Open Source people can make something to fill the gap, there really is nothing else (yet). Matrix really doesn't have the features and that which it does have is often bad UX and doesn't work everywhere. Not seen anything else which will fill the gap and I've been looking but I guess nobody thought discord would go down, go this way, or just don't really know how to make something that would fill the gap, or didn't want to.
