Group mentality that picks and chooses who is "cool" and then bullies everyone else.
I've never been in a Discord server and thought "Wow this server doesn't do the moderator LARP-ing thing".
I've tried looking it up but among irrelevant results (general LARP info) I just found this comment again as the third result...

How to quickly lose a few potential users.
It seems strange that someone would be offended by the US variant being called "simplified" spelling — wasn't that the whole point?
Despite being told long ago by a drunk English visiting student that “the language is English not American” I’ll stand by our American simplification! Lamentably this simplification seems to be backtracking our political system…but hey we’re going from Discord to Revolt!

Is this apropos anything? I was pushing back on the claim that there were no ads, though your username suggests the reason.
Why are you belligerent?
"Belligerence" as you call it is direct, unambiguous, and will probably be remembered.

If you've been on a game dev discord, it's usually the opposite.
I'm sorry, I didn't understand, are you claiming that gamers (perhaps one of the most notoriously toxic communities) are not hostile towards game developers?
My anecdotal data is based on observations from my partner who has boughten several asset packs from itch.io, got on the discord for support, and the artists/game devs have been extremely unwelcoming to the point of just banning users for simple game dev questions and/or mentions of AI.
Of course, gamers (competitive) are generally a toxic bunch.

Since US English retains more historical features of English and has fewer of the newer ones (especially in light of Received Pronunciation, rhoticity, and random u insertion), one could argue that US English is the more traditional one. https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20180207-how-americans-p...
I live in a region of the UK where rhoticity is alive and well. It actually means I've an easier time understanding some words when Americans speak them, compared to the English. On the broader point I'd agree up until I notice that you'd write 'defense' yet also 'fence', and ponder why the verb 'got' is so overused.
Is the API discord compatible? That's basically necessary for adoption.
The github https://github.com/revoltchat
This is sorely lacking on the homepage! All FLOSS is expected to link to the source from the homepage.
A British company making a chat app. What’s the privacy policy? 5 eyes first then you?
haha i had to laugh at the language selectors: {flag:uk} English (traditional) {flag:us} English (simplified)
Yep, simplified by removing all those silly extraneous ‘u’s
What do people find upsetting about Discord? It's free, there's no ads, it's reliable, it has many established communities, it's cross-platform and even works in the browser, supports voice chat and screen sharing. What more could you ask for? Or, are you asking for too much? What I mean is: What innovative functionality is missing to such a degree, that if it was introduces, would make people abandon Discord?
