    I have several communities I run. one has a large number of active users.

    if I wanted to pick up and move the whole community to another platform, everyone would have to come at once.

    the people in my servers are also in other communities. they won’t just up and leave discord for one community. and I’m not interested in destroying the place a lot of these people call home unless I can get a majority of people to move all at once.

    do you know how impossible that is? in order for discord to truly die (which btw I hope for. heavily), it would actually have to die. like meaning a MASS exodus where everyone is abandoning the platform in droves.

    but its the only place certain communities that I use exist. its more complicated than “Discord bad don’t use.” I wish I didn’t have to. but its where literally 95% of all my friends are.

      I didn’t ask why are you not moving away. I have no interest in being there as I have no interest in you coming out of there.

      My question is: why did you get there in the first place.

      Others answered my question to my satisfaction.

            it reads to me as though you’re saying “I didn’t ask and I don’t need your answer anyway. go away.”

            if that wasn’t how you meant it, I apologize. but it sounded hostile when I read it.
