Reply to comment by FruityWelsh in P2P self-governance society prototype researching the intersection of moneyless economy, liquid democracy and p2p media by shanoshamanizum

You're getting high on your own BS.

The civil rights movement didn't require an app.

Nor did the labor unions.

People don't need your walled garden to connect with each other.

The civil rights movement wasn't passed down by oral tradition, either. Technology is an enabler for how societies can choose to function. Without the printing press, you NEEDED the lecture to spread information, which gave the lecturer power to choose what was learned.

Now you're comparing your haft-ass project to the printing press

Talk about Chunibyo delusions.

If your idea was useful, if it had a killer feature you wouldn't be ranting about these tangents.

You would have already demonstrated why it's better than discord.

I mean, I appreciate you thinking I made this, but this Reddit post is the first time I've seen it...

The printing press also wasn't made full and complete all at once either, but incrementally, which maybe what projects like this represent.

I think Matrix is better than Discord, at least FOSSDEM conference was a blast on there, including being able to break rooms in a really friendly manner. That said, I don't think this is trying to be a Discord alternative, so it feels kind of unrelated to me.
