There definitely needs to be a social pressure to drop discord, I propose that there needs to be some level of social stigma around using or liking discord. Like for example if someone says they prefer discord or like its look and features and promote people to verify or even buy Discord Nitro, call them a discord bro or similar negative quip (we can find the names and phrases in due time).
If that sounds too harsh consider that if someone said they like to use chatGPT and prefer to use it, a lot of people would call them AI bros for that. It isn’t much different. Social stigma is a powerful motive. Especially for creators and for platforms where PR is of utmost importance.
Like if Discord usage is stigmatized we can go from discord API logins on community sites and projects to them never even acknowledging discord exists. That’s what will drive change, not inconvenience, not privacy violations by discord, or even good intentions on their part. Shame that loses people’s respect for them.
