Will it lead to the exodus towards Matrix/Element? If I have to pay for messaging, I'd rather cut the middleman.

Not yet. It's just not ready yet and people are picky about what chat features they now need.

I wish tho.

What keeps your posse on discord?

Organization scheme, ease of use of the voice channels, cross platform compatibility.

We briefly looked into discord alternatives. Element x isn't mature enough, schildi chat could be viable. Revolt seemed to be the front runner, but the voice chat was awkward to use since it didn't show when people were in channels, and the noise cancelling of discord was sorely missed.
