Time to check out Mastodon, Pleroma, and other distributed social networks.

Walled gardens with chilling suppression begone!

Mastodon and Pleroma are Twitter alternatives, not Discord alternatives. The chat functionality for them is awfully implemented last time I checked. But then again it's a different target audience.

You are right. XMPP and IRC then.

Mastodon can de-platform you just as easily as Discord if they don't like what you say.

No more so than any random website. Mastodon is a federated platform, so find an instance that allows you to say what you want to.
