Adding a user's @user@domain.com in a comment is - to really simplify it - just like sending them an email. The bot get a message that you posted something, it process the message and "emails" you back at that time.
I've got my vote for the guy who thought carbon fiber would do great under pressure after being told "no" by tons of experts in the field.
Revolt is a great alternative to Discord, although I personally am still rooting for Matrix/Element in the long run.
I'm aware it's possible on Android using the "official" app - although it can be flaky - and also from desktop if you're using Google Chrome. Not sure what's possible on iOS unfortunately.
FYI - although not official, Discord can be installed as a Flatpak [0], albeit with some features missing [1].
Also, I've found Webcord [2] a good alternative for my limited use-case. You may want to try it and see if it works for you. Lastly! I see there's now a GTK4/Go Discord client available [3], I'll have to give this a try and see how well it works at the moment.

Does FluffyChat support encrypted rooms/chats now? Last I tried it didn't and was the reason I went back to Element.
The way I did it was getting rid of the apps I no longer wanted on my phone. This forced people to send text messages. If they try sending a good pic/video it would obviously fail. Their only option was usually something more difficult than just installing Signal. I don't provide Whatsapp as an alternative. I did lose some contacts, but close friends/family will obviously opt for the better messaging experience compared to default SMS.
Signal could have implemented RCS messaging themselves
That would have been great, except Google doesn't provide an API for developers to use RCS in their own apps like they did with SMS. Google's basically forcing everyone (long term) into their messaging app, which I suspect will eventually be the "iMessage" of Android since there wont be any alternative "texting" apps.
Here's a POV, and it's important to note that in general most users don't care (or even know) what their default browser is. At this point in time there are five "major" operating systems with the following global market shares [0]:
- Android 35%
- Windows 30%
- iOS 17%
- macOS 9%
- Linux 1.5%
If we can agree that most users (not being technically literate, interested or inclined) will not change their default browser, we can easily see why Firefox is losing market share. Basically 91% of the world is - by default - using a non Firefox browser. If their current one is working well enough, why should they care to change it? Can we blame Mozilla for losing some users? Yeah, maybe a few. But that's not really the whole picture.

Edit: I should point out there's a 6.6% group marked as "unknown" in the OS market share data - I left this out to keep things simple.
Try the Jellyfin Matrix room [0] if you don't get an answer here. You may have more luck as the room has nearly 7k members.
The real "LPT" is always in the comments: Spray your hand and rub it on like regular sunscreen.
