> with one side that’s willing to use the proprietary Discord client, and one side that isn’t. By choosing Discord, you also lock out users with accessibility needs, for whom the proprietary Discord client is often a nightmare to use.1 Users who cannot afford new enough hardware to make the resource-intensive client pleasant to use are also left by the wayside
Discord runs fine in the browser, I've been using it for years any never installed anything. So there's nothing more proprietary than other websites, and you can probably use chrome accessibility features.
I have this slight feeling this guy has a grudge and is writing this in bad faith. Matrix, Zulip and Rocket Chat are good alternatives, but I can't believe he's suggesting to use IRC in 2021. Way to drive people away from your project that way when nobody knows how to use your limited team chat haha.
