I understand. But then how would others in the channel interact with my Soundboard and trigger it? Now I have to write a bot if I want others to interact with it. Have to write rules so people can submit their own sounds and manage the volume on each one of the sounds.
Also, discord soundboard does seem to somehow stream or play the soundboard item locally at a higher quality than what the voice channel provides (default for most discord voice channels is 64 kbps bit rate).
It seems you are pretty stuck on the soundboard as an individual feature instead of a sever feature that works regardless of me being around or participating on that server.
My argument was more around feature users now expect in a noIM platform. In my experience within my own life out of every 30 people or so, 1 or 2 will truly care about privacy and security. This is with having a career in IT, with some family members also in IT and most of my friends are IT or IT adjacent. Most people are looking for tools that provide with the richest set of features they can easily use while giving the users the semblance of privacy. So for a new platform to welcome them it has to be very feature complete with its competitors or offer something beyond the lost features the users truly value.
