Clubhouse is better and will be opening up to android soon.

I had considered Clubhouse, but the fact that it's mobile-only and doesn't handle text well was a bit of a deterrent, a lot of people are shy about voice-centric communication. I also wasn't sure if the Android implementation would come soon enough, and so I thought Discord might be more adequate.

There's already this one: https://discord.gg/hddUb4XBdE What would yours add?
nonniemous 3 points 2y ago
This is actually one of the servers that I mention in the post; basically I feel that it provides different things as VIP Lounge did, just as the existing gaming-centric one does. I would like a space that prioritises social activities over discussing things directly related to blindness. Nevertheless, it doesn't bother me that there's multiple servers for a thing, it's good that people have a choice in which ones they want to be in and it makes the community a bit less monolithic :)

Unfortunately that one has a powertripping mod with extreme views on what constitutes ableism and an itchy permaban finger, and an admin who refuses to stand up to her.

Can I join?

Of course, it's delightful to provide this space: https://discord.gg/Mn8zzXYsT5

I would love this. I think I was apart of VIP Lounge for a bit but left since I was getting spam bots from other servers and never rejoined. It would be fun to just hang out and voice chat, maybe someone can stream movies and stuff.

It would honestly be a pleasure to have you, VIP Lounge was really welcoming to me and I had a great time in voice chat and movie nights, it'd be a delight to experience that again. Here's an invite to the server we set up!

I have a discord account, but haven't used it in a few years, due to it not being easy to read. If there have been improvements, I'm in!
nonniemous 1 points 2y ago
I messaged you privately in case you'd like some help getting around the software; the community itself is already set up, here's the invitation :)
