  6. No trolling.

There are so many different competing apps and discord copies that have risen and fallen, it’s hard to really get attached to any that have little movement in fighting the network effect.

In other words, you are saying that there is too much discord in this space?

Down with discord!

I'm starting a new app called Concordance, and it will only bridge between different apps no matter where they are from 😤

Let me save you a few keystrokes, there's already an app called Matterbridge: github.com/42wim/matterbridge
