I think providing guidance on replacing discord, while maintaining flexibility, is just as important.

I'm not a dev but this topic keeps popping up on Lemmy and maybe the solution is to create a megathread or some sort of wiki detailing best practices for FOSS and suggestions on what the community supports.

Maybe less experienced people will take too long to reach this conclusion otherwise.
