Why are FOSS platforms like Matrix having such a hard time getting users to migrate from Discord? Because of PluralKit.

I don't know. Maybe one day I'll look into the Matrix API and see if it's possible. Theoretically it should be easy as long as webhooks are in place. The hard part is hosting. Pluralkit is huge compared to most discord bots. They used to have lots of downtime, but now they run it across a lot of shards.
