Why are all my friends addicted to this shit? How do I get them to stop?
>>
>>106816317
because none of you are actually friends
>>
>>106816317
What's the use case for this thread?
>>
you can't save most people
suggest them to create an account on matrix/xmpp (element/gajim) if they still want to talk with you. if they won't then they don't even care about you
>>
>>106816317
develop a good alternative

Why were all my friends addicted to MSN, Ventrillo, Teamspeak and later Mumble? Why does a fucking chat room make you seethe so much?
>>
>>106816317
Because IRC is obtuse shit in 2025
>>
>>106818781
mumble was at least diy and could self host. none of this centralized spyware.
>>
>>106818811
It's always privacy fags

Crazy to think that everyone is talking online but when you try to talk in the real world with no rules or guidelines everyone is fried to speak to
>>
>>106816317
because you're not discovering www.tincanapp.org instead which is a lot better and will literally make your dick bigger

Asking the right question, m8
What the hell is the use case for this thread?

>>106816317
Bizarre addiction. Discord is trash outside of the most popular channels.
>>
>>106822873
>>106823064
These look cool, but do a lot of people use them?
>>
>>106823208
not right now, it's a new thing, so you can have a lot of influence on its development with requests and such
>>
If you have to ask on 4chan you don't have any friends.

Discord strikes me as a half-baked imitation of old-fashioned PHPBB message boards and 4chan. I went around looking for certain kinds of channels I might like, but just found wastelands. So I see the same issue that plagues 4chan: you may have this or that discussion "board"/chatroom spring up, some folks have a lot of fun with discussions, but later don't know what to do while everyone is away, busy with their lives, and so there is nothing but ultimately just empty, pointless small talk or outright shitposting. Can sometimes be that "everyone" never returns, so just shitposters are all that remains. In some 4chan generals, it's just one schizo talking to himself all week, fucking kek

Like a number of general threads across this site, some of those Discord channels should only be open and active during weekends, or just close down or something, it looks to me. Plus the whole thing needs to be restructured and reworked, it is clunky to use and trying to search old posts is a crappy timesink compared to desuarchive and PHPBB boards and the like.
Channels and threads rise and fall like fads and trends. A lot of things online and in the real world are like that.

I am the dev of tincan and no not many people use it at all because I've only ever posted about it here and it's still in early beta stage development. Mostly works now though just need to rollout voice chat and get mobile to be stable.

>no source code
straight into the trash

>>106824258
open sores would only cripple its development and growth
