Meanwhile I cannot turn my living room LED lights on or off because I control them through discord. I guess that's what I get for relying on a messaging service to control my lights.

Whyyyyyy?

Discord bots are dirt simple to make, so it's not that crazy

It's a completely free, both in message volume and queue size, highly available hosted 1-1 and 1-n topic based message queue with automatic sharding, excellent performance, and high-quality prebuilt libraries. It has built-in notification support to all platforms and a basic UI toolkit that is easy to use.

The fact that it's also a chat thing is honestly secondary to the foundational tech.

This doesn't answer the question tho. Utterly ridiculous.

Discord works just fine most of the time, its not that big of a deal. I assume they can still turn off their lights any which other way.
