While looking for Discord alternatives I came across this project which looks like a great alternative for the kinds of Discord servers centered around Open Source projects and organizations. Ones where live chat and voice rooms aren’t the focus. It’s a combination of forums and knowledge base that would be perfect for this use case.

That’s because it aims to replace one of the wrong use cases that projects (FOSS or not) weirdly decide to use Discord for, such as replacement for a “contact forum” or “support forum”.
Oh, so it is, hadn’t noticed it at first.
And, sure enough, disabling webgl in about:config causes the page to throw the error, instead of degrading gracefully. An animation of random dots is not at all necessary to expose about a product that is a web forum.
You mean why does the site for a forum software need webgl, by which the only reason I can think of is tracking visitors somehow. It’s not like the background landscape on the site is dynamic or something.
Mind, seems to be vibecoded.
It’s 2026, being vibecoded is a self-explanatory problem.
Exactly same error for me. I’m glad there are such indicators so I don’t have to waste my time on such a crappy overcomplicated design.
Thanks!
It’s not so much about wholly removing webgl contrasted to at least having some sort of fallback that allows the site to be experienced, but thanks again for at least tackling the change.
To be fair, I should have stopped drinking coffee 10 years ago for my blood pressure.
The era of not judging the means ended in, like, 1066 or smth. Vibe-coded stuff for example means burning down a couple of forests just so the AI can propose where to place a semicolon, long before a “result” is even visible.
Once again, something that is absolutely not needed to explain what a forum software is and thus, should degrade gracefully. To a static png or something.
