With this kind of mentality, nobody will ever migrate and one will have to deal with Discord’s horrible terms and conditions

XMPP is just the protocol, you can create a client which looks like any proprietary alternative like Discord (fluux tries to have the same look for example)

Movim is IMO the best alternative using XMPP and it’s adding more and more features the last weeks stay tuned! see here

Just explain them their use of fallacies is wrong and communication is key and then, maybe, they will reconsider their position. If they don’t then you dodged a bullet especially in the long term

I guess it’s a blessing in disguise because now it will be easier to detect people who are not worth dating

I thought they were going to use AI to share their wealth /s
