With news that Discord is moving toward stricter age/ID verification and privacy concerns around this shift, I’m wondering whether Open Source communities like Python and Django should consider alternatives to Discord. 🤔

Platforms like Matrix or Zulip might better respect privacy and freedom of access.

What do you think about a migration away from Discord?
