I recall watching [Hello Tomorrow](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyPx64LjdJM) which was a quirky atompunk themed comedy from Apple. It wasn't perfect, it wasn't especially funny - but it had a charismatic affable liar as a lead that you found sympathetic despite his sleaze, and gave huge pre-war Fallout vibes. Apple silently cancelled it some time ago.
I would also argue Peacock's attempt at [Brave New World](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As2sMgm0Szo). Reimagined for the modern era (because really it had to be) and probably took more from Westworld than it did Brave New World, but it was doomed by being a Peacock original.

Digg's officially launched now for about a month and it's... really underwhelming.
The "[Most Dugg](https://digg.com/?feed=all-digg&sort=dugg)" posts by upvotes as of this post:
+110, +107, +89, +86, +84, +84, +79, +79 (roughly in the last 24 hours)
As compared to Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin as seen on Lemmy.world (Top in last 24 hours):
+1.22k, +952, +855, +751, +669, +646, +620, +612
That's really poor from Digg honestly.

"I'm just happy to be here" is a fun archetype but unfortunately not that common lol

I think the problem is that there's two competing problems here: The federated structure of the fediverse and good onboarding. We certainly can improve onboarding, but trying to bypass it and just throw people into an instance sort of negates what the point of federation is. And I don't think it would stop many people confused now, from being confused.

One user in particular. And nothing will ever satisfy them.

Sorry, but some of the people in that thread arguing about federation (something they still don't understand) are not interested in finding out how it works.
You could literally make them an account on piefed.social, and they would still be confused on account of all of the communities and usernames from different servers.
I truly think it's best to not put too much stock in one obstinate user arguing about it when 10 others quietly sign up and try it out with no hand-holding needed.

I would add that a true Federated Discord clone should have a "Community Discovery" map where accounts could jump in and access other chatrooms. And 'instances' could choose what other instances to federate with. Just like how it works on the Fediverse now.
Otherwise its just entirely disconnected independently run chatrooms.

Matrix just isn't a Discord alternative flatout to me. It's too different.
We really do a lack a Discord alternative right now. I know of two major examples: Stoat and Root. Both centralised. This is offputting to many, altough Stoat is actually UK-based which could in theory mitigate concerns about US big-tech.
The only down-the-line federated potential is something called "Roomy", and I am following it - but it's too basic right now.

I think it would be reasonable if you did ban prolific repeat offenders personally. Obviously not sending DMs, but they're clearly not interested - you would be helping them curate their own feeds.
