@melroy Unfortunately, as I explained elsewhere, the problem is that Meta has now “infected” the word thread.
For this reason I would propose #topicverse also because in fact, it is not so much the “thread” that characterizes the Lemmy/xBin/Piefed/BBCode environment, but the ability to immediately identify the “topics”. In fact, Mastodon also has the thread, even if it is unwatchable, but the topic display is only available in some software (and some apps like Raccoon for Friendica, which allow you to view the topics of activitypub groups also on Mastodon)



@julian NodeBB obviously doesn’t have the full functionality of Discord, but unlike other federated solutions, it also has an excellent chat.
The problem, however, is that Discord users want Discord precisely because it’s centralized and because its users suffer from Stockholm syndrome.
Discord users would probably only replace it if they found something worse, with stricter Terms of Service and more AI.
