Discord was already succumbing to enshitification. Now with their intention to be owned by Wall Street, that trajectory will certainly accelerate at warp speed once the change of hands happens.

Anyone already get ahead of this and find a solid alternative?

Right now I'm on the fence between Element for Matrix, and Revolt. Both seem to have their pros and cons and I can't find a clear "winner".

If you're self hosting, it's Revolt. But the default instance limits you to 20mb or something for files, which is a problem for me, personally.

Revolt is also an annoyance to self host and the apps don’t support self hosted instances without you rebuilding them because the server is hardcoded.

Why even give the option then lmao

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

That’s just it, it isn’t an option

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Doesnt discord also have a max of like 25mb? Unless you pay for nitro?

[–] HappyTimeHarry@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If that, depending on the type of file sometimes its 10mb

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yea that's what I thought, cause I've had small files get rejected recently now.

[–] hitagi@ani.social 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It was 8mb then 25mb then 10mb now (for non-Nitro users)

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I believe it's ~100mb. I don't mind paying for more. That's not an option on Revolt.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wait? I thought this was FOSS? Is there no settings to allow you to change the upload size of files?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

Again, if you're self-hosting, yes; If you're using the default instance, no.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just use croc to share files. Then size doesn't matter.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago

Yes that sounds super convenient...
