People don't realise discord is just another proprietary closed communication platform with back doors to monitor all your comms? An open standard that games connected to could potentially go a long way to break that pattern.
Mumble?

So, ActivityPub or XMPP?
Otherwise, the article reads like a corporate boot licking for discord and steam. So aggressive toward Tim Sweeney but for the wrong reasons. Pain to read
