“우리동네의원 원장은 의사 평균 급여가 아닌 우리나라 직장인 평균 급여를 받았다. 10년의 세월이었다. 주치의였던 그가 마을과 맺어온 관계는 단순 ‘의사-환자’를 넘어선 것이었다. 그 때문이었을 것이다. 그가 급성 심근경색으로 쓰러졌다는 소식이 들려왔을 때, 치료비 8천여만원이 단숨에 모인 것은”

한국식 나이는 그냥 본인이 살면서 거친 해의 개수고 만 나이/서양식 나이/굥나이(...)는 본인이 살아온 날의 개수를 365로 나눠서 그 몫을 취한 건데 왜 한국식 나이가 더 어렵다는 사람이 있는지 모르겠음 그냥 1~2살 더 먹기 싫다는 거겠지...ㅎㅎ; 저도 그 맘아니까 닥칠게요...

사실 저는 이런 거 하고 싶었어요.
이젠 불펌을 게시하는 것도 질려요.
볼 사람은 보고 안 볼 사람은 안 보겠죠.
근데 그래도 인스타 틱.톡 유튭에 올릴 때는 인기 있는 노래를 넣어서 올리려고요.

근데 사실 제가 직접 찍은 동영상 자체에 들어간 생활 소음이 맛도린데
이걸 유행이라고 받아들이는 시대가 오려면 몇 년이나 더 기다려야 할까요..

무작위 인기가요 범벅한 숏폼들 질릴 때 아직 안 됐을까요..?

@matrixThe Matrix.org Foundation Matrix is not ready for all of the discord Exodus. Needs more decentralization from the primary server and better moderation tools, and easier setup for admins.

“And that's...it. Element promises more, like native video conferencing, but heaven help you if you're trying to self-host it. It is technically possible, but by no means simple.

"Technically possible, but by no means simple" aptly describes up the entire Matrix experience, actually.

I ran a private Matrix server for about a year and a half. Why private? In two public Matrix rooms I had joined—including the room for Synapse admins—I experienced a common attack in which troll accounts spam the room with CSAM material. Horrible, but not just for the participants and admins in the room. Through the magic of federation, every server who has a user participating in the room now has a copy of the CSAM material, and has to take action to remove it. This requires a manual curl request on the server itself, because Synapse has an appalling lack of moderation tools. It's so bad that, without third-party tooling, you can't even ban a user outright from a server; you have to manually ban them from every single room.

Then came September 2, 2025. The outageof matrix.org caused by drive failures was not an indictment of Matrix's database management or recovery process—in fact, I was quite impressed with their response. But it did put the lie to Matrix's decentralization for me. Almost none of my friends could use Matrix, even though I was hosting my own server. The onboarding pipeline (especially via Element) is so focused on the flagship server, I daresay it comprises the plurality of Matrix accounts. It's not easy to get any statistics for all Matrix users, but that is my guess. How "decentralized" is that, really? Just because something can be decentralized doesn't make it so.

Isn't that right, ATProto?

I'm probably a little too close to this one. I so badly wanted Matrix to work, and I tried to make it work for my purposes for a long time. Ultimately, the pain points overcame the benefits. But if you care most about an intersection of message encryption, federation, and decentralization, and you're willing to put in quite a lot of admin time, Matrix can be a viable community chat platform.”

A grandmother and Irish citizen, who immigrated to the US in 1978, legally holding a green card, was targeted by lmmigration for a $25 check that didn't clear when she was living paycheck to paycheck 11 years ago to a gas station. She paid restitution of $80 covering the bounced checks, plus $117 in court fees, & a year of probation. She spent 143 days in lCE detention facility, costing US taxpayers about $27,000.

Whatever your politics, is THIS what you want to pay for?

If you're interested in funding or helping us find funding for a Discord replacement that's federated and end-to-end encrypted, we're interested in implementing that at @spritelyThe Spritely Institute ... we even had been talking about that being our big focus for 2026.

We have the skills and the underlying tech to pull this off. What we need right now is resources. Funding for open source nonprofits like ours really fell apart in 2025. If you think you know how to help, feel free to reach out.

So You Want To Write An Open Source Discord Replacement

Things you don’t need:
- federation/distributed systems
- multiparty end-to-end encryption
- an entirely new operating system kernel specially designed to—

Things you DO need:
- a user interface that is Normal
- the ability to use languages other than English and writing systems other than Latin
- higher standards of user experience than how irc actually works in the real world
- any fucking clue how Discord works and why people use it

I have muted replies to this post due to the usual reasons
