This is certainly uncharitable. They seem to care a fair bit about accessibility; but certainly can’t chase down every possible issue on every possible configuration when it comes to browser compatibility.

Their service is currently free. You can take your business elsewhere, and convince your friends to do the same.

"certainly can’t chase down every possible issue on every possible configuration when it comes to browser compatibility."

You know who can? A mass of programmers making FOSS clients specifically to address these issues.

Oh, wait, sorry, can't do that with Discord because reasons.
