What do you find so bad about Discord's search functionality?
Because I see this complaint a lot, but I've personally never had any real problems with it, and it seems to cover pretty much all of the bases I'd want in a search for this kind of platform.
Laden with ads is an overstatement considering Quests are tucked away in their own menu.
The problem with those many alternate chat clients is that they either require self-hosting, making them a nonstarter for probably 95% or more of Discord's userbase, or their lack of monetisation makes them non-viable long term.
There is a setting to disable this.

I know we're kind of used to rapid societal change at this point, but I'd still consider the 90s or even the 80s recent enough that I could call things that arose in those times as "new phenomena"... from a broader societal standpoint at least.

There's been times in the past when I've had nontechnical stakeholders present for otherwise technical meetings. A little bit of colour and a little bit of animation can go a long way to helping people who may be less familiar with this type of diagram to understand it better.
All the better if I can take an existing diagram and just spruce it up slightly for presentation.
