A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot on the Discord, despite protests from members.
Users voted to restrict Anthropic’s Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.

Is there an open Discord clone? If not, is someone working on one?
Matrix is close, but not sure about the streaming and voice. Access control is also a bit immature.
Matrix is different and does different things, also you have to keep your security key written down and nobody’s gonna help you if you get locked out of your account without it
Matrix is absolutely no where near close.
In addition to Matrix, there’s also Revolt.
There is no longer Revolt, only Stoat.
This confused me at first. But I just looked it up, and yup, they changed their name. But everything else remains the same.
I’ve used it a bit. It seems very good. The big challenge is now getting people to migrate over from Discord.
