- "Alright guys, it’s time to leave Slack for a better alternative!"
- Proceeds to migrate to yet another proprietary and centralized piece of software.
- It happens again.
- "Alright guys, it’s time to leave [insert software name here] for a better alternative!"
- It happens again, again.
- Clown moment.
It’s what’s going to happen. It’s what always happens. And on a side note, by the way, I guaran-fucking-tee you that it’s what’s going to eventually happen with Discord as well. I have zero doubt about it.

Seriously. What would be surprising is if they were not. Proprietary Software gonna Proprietary Software.

Just the other day, me and @rottingleaf@lemmy.zip “designed” a new messenger to combat things like this: lazysoci.al/comment/9619656

Your idea doesn't sound too difficult to implement but I don't know if people would want to store all these messages locally when the vast majority of people are used to having their shit be stored elsewhere. Additionally, if you wanted to target enterprise users, they would want to likely have all their messages centralised for auditing purposes
Other than that, I think its a pretty neat idea
