    You’re already asking a lot of reddit refugees to use Matrix over Discord, most who don’t give much of a shit what’s FOSS or not.

      That makes sense, sometimes you have to go with the pragmatic option instead of the ideal. I think we don’t give the non-tech-inclined user enough credit when it comes to their ability to adapt to change though and I see value in encouraging the use of FOSS wherever possible since wider adoption can encourage further development.
