You would make a bad investor if you can't recognize the writing on the wall.
Which is?
Headlines like the one on this submission makes me think "finally, someone has started to write that thing in a sensible language".

If one can afford it, mongodb Atlas is really just fine. As someone said, at scale, all technologies need significant know-how and time investment.
Captcha is not working on Firefox. And it is required at each login.
Perhaps offtopic, but why is it so common with new tools for the language it's written in, of all things, to be selected as the top selling point?
For any open source project, you are marketing as much towards potential developers as you are end-users. Note that their home page doesn't say "Rust" at all. However, on Hacker News, there are potential contributors, and so giving them a bit of information about the project can be useful.

We want to make sure it's not being written in Electron
Instead of yet another app/platform, why not Matrix protocol?
Especially interesting as they intend to support a matrix bridge: https://revolt.chat/roadmap#checkbox40 . It seems like it would be easier to just use Matrix "natively" and then you also have a mostly-working Discord bridge for free. Plus the likely value here is largely the client, so you can consider reusing, or at least building on top of an existing matrix server.

I don't understand, is there some reason you cannot idle in a Matrix room? Again I don't know, but for the sake of discussion it would be good to mention that.
Not GP, but Discord user too. UX matters. People are very sensitive to the context of features, what the subtle meaning of using them is, how we initiate the communication and how it all "feels" like, for lack of a better word. Kind of like there is no difference between (s)ftp and dropbox, and yet there is.

You can of course install from your package manager [1][2][3][4]. If you're not going to install from your trusted source then I'm not sure curl https:// ... | bash is really worse than downloading and double clicking a msi/dmg/deb/rpm. Especially if you're not going to verify that or verify it using keys downloaded from the same https host. [1] Homebrew - https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/.…
>You can of course install from your package manager Debian 11 was released a couple weeks ago and the rustc it ships with is already so out of date (7 months old, gasp!) software written for modern rust versions can't be compiled with it. And this isn't a Debian only problem.

The difference is that Discord voice chats work like "meeting rooms". I don't want to call everyone in a channel, I want to see who's already hanging around and join them on a whim. It's not really "calls" per se as you don't actually call anyone and they're not coupled to actual text conversation channels. That's the big UX difference, and it's a big deal for gaming and more casual communities with many participants…
It really is the difference between channels and rooms, as in visiting rooms or tuning to a frequency to join a radio channel. It feels very different? And the use-cases are different.

I would strongly urge you to consider migrating to an alternative database, given MongoDB's SSPL license that is difficult to comply with.
What are the best nosql databases? half of our devs dont like sql much (ive tried to make them use orms too, didnt work)
