> you force the app onto those you want to collaborate with.

Ah ah ! Exactly why I don’t like this trend to have Discord on every project. I don’t really care about the chat room being hosted on Discord servers. Eventually, it’s the channel owner’s choice.

But forcing me to execute the client ? Sorry but I can’t. It’s not that I don’t like it, but that I can’t trust it. Well, and that it doesn’t integrate well with any of my OS (well, except on Windows where not being integrated is now the norm for pretty much everything).

Discord has a website app, it's the same as the OS one, because, well, it's Electron. I use it and it works fine for me.

Yeah... I honestly find it strange that anyone would bother installing the "app" version at all, much less feel blocked from using the service by somehow feeling forced to: Discord is just a web page!

The app version offers specific functionality that the web version does not, or implements poorly.
