Discord has been rolling out terrible features lately instead of improving the already existing ones. Messages still aren’t E2EE and third-party clients are against TOS.

Discord has some shady shit in its privacy policy, and one of their largest investors is Tencent. Discord is one of my top targets for replacement, but none of my friends are all that interested in trying Matrix

For me its because of privacy.

For a non federated option I love guilded

I assume people who are looking to try to use all FOSS for social media/chat platforms

Discord being proprietary should be reason enough to try to replace it

revolt is foss discord, no nitro there
