As Reddit melts down, users are fleeing to lemmy, kbin, tildes and more.

Switching to Discord is pointless. That’s switching from a website controlled by one evil corporation to one controlled by a different evil corporation. Discord is still in hyper-growth mode, so they aren’t going to be adding user-hostile features for awhile. Tilde has the same problem.
Outside of the username thing.
I don’t like the username decision but it didn’t seem hostile to users. People seem to pick a username, update their server profile, and move on. My account is old enough that I picked my username pretty early in the process though.
I agree that casual users likely found the discriminator confusing, though I never verbally shared my username with people. It didn’t seem like a strong enough reason to warrant the change.
Why do you consider it hostile? I doesn’t seem like it has degraded the overall experience.
Yep, it’s not searchable and just another corporation. It’s fine for certain things but it’s NOT a replacement for Reddit.
