I have an existing community of thousands of users on discord, attempts to migrate to other platforms have failed. What would you suggest?

The community was inherited and existed when I became maintainer.

For you, I suggest sticking to Discord. I am of the mind that your effort should be focused on your community instead of enforcing a FOSS philosophy upon a group that may not have any interest in doing so.

If you are creating a new community, this is a different conversation, of course.
