all the same problems with v/pizzagatewhatever - which the discord replaces - arise with Discord (centralization etc.) also being open source doesn't help - ie. reddit - they just change the source code

@kevdude @wecanhelp on the security aspect of discord, investigators like @redberries use discord through tor browser, since discord works with full functionality in a browser

riot is great but isn't working, discord is. i can try and help with riot if you want

like i've said earlier, i've been coding a discord replacement, but that'll be up in like a fortnight, so until then...

they just change the source code

The difference is that

  • we know when they change it;
  • we know how they change it.

discord through tor browser

I think that's the minimum for anonymity with both Discord and Riot, but given the decentralized, redundant nature of Riot (technically, Matrix), there is no single point of control or failure, meaning you have to take down the entire network of participants to take down the discussion.

riot is great but isn't working

What's wrong with it? I'm not protecting it in that aspect as I haven't used it, merely interested.

@wecanhelp sorry how do we know when voat changes their source code? thought it was the same system as (open source) reddit, who changed theirs without us knowing

also i agree about the decentralized nature of riot making it better, and that's why i'm writing a distributed version of Discord (which i prefer) that's scheduled to have a working version in ~14 days
