Hi all, I’m new here on Lemmy and had never even heard of Matrix until I logged into Beehaw. I see frequent references to the “enshitification” of Discord, but I’m a bit OOTL on that.
What’s your preference between Matrix and Discord?
Any particular reasons or just a preference?
You’re right, but I was speaking from the standpoint of someone who needs to be connected to Discord (although I admit that I probably didn’t make that point obvious). In those cases, a client such as Webcord, can block things such as telemetry, fingerprinting and third party website access which help lessen the information Discord can actually collect on you. Granted, it’s not ideal, but it is a better option for those who just can’t live without Discord in their lives.
