Aside from the risk, I don't understand why you would put your time into it. They can change their stance any minute and your work is just down the drain. I guess you could do it for learning and experience? idk...

Nah. What's missing is an alternative to discord itself, with enough pull behind it.

I can't argue with that. kind is the practical solution, not the ideal one.

Instead of making it work with Discord, built it around xmpp with as many of the same niceties that discord offers and get yourself a working alternative on an open, powerful protocol, fully FOSS.

People want to get away from closed, centralised applications. The sentiment is the strongest it's ever been. But they don't have compelling and working enough alternatives to do so.
