On the contrary everybody is on discord and not being on it will turn off the vast majority of people cause I wont open matrix just for your software.

And people will not use discord for the same gatekeeping reason.

Like I have tried discord a few times but I just cant "feel at home" with it. Its like too much content at once.

You can have bridge to discord from matrix so that solves one problem for now but again, discord and matrix feel like eons apart.

I use both discord and irc, I vastly prefer irc for project discussion, but haven't exactly been able to pinpoint why. I think perhaps, for me, it's that topics tend to stay much more focused, but I understand this probably has to do with discord having servers>channels>threads and boards, where projects use some, but not all of them in the same way.

Irc pretty simple, one project, one channel.
