Slay the spire is on Java

The point of it being a core feature, is that people are not going to Discord for its DM capabilities.

That’s true about DM, however DMs are not a core use-case for discord-like services. It’s the group/voice chats etc. I could see a workaround like lemmy does, where if you want to DM a user in another server, you might be able to do it through your fediverse instance (i.e. a DM simply has your fediverse instance DM their fediverse instance), but I’m sure there can be more elegant things like. However DMs by themselves are a weird thing by themselves, so much so, that even bluesky had to bolt DMs on-top and outside of their protocol.

Sorry but what exactly do you communicate and access between discord servers? Are you talking about PMs which are by default independent of servers?

Unified search could easily be achieved through third party tools at the least, like for IRC. I don’t think even discord has unified search between servers.

I guess the easy solution here to to make it use oauth2 authentication. Then you can just authenticate using one account elsewhere. If fediverse services also at some point become oauth2 providers, then even better.

Yo this kind of talk got lawyers going after reddit to prove some isp is complicit. Y’all gonna turn the eye of sauron on us! 😖

I’d love to have an effort-thread about Streamio if you’re willing to write one
