What will bite Dischord is the storage requirements on the server.
Skype doesn't record conversations serverside, other than buffering messages that haven't been delivered yet.
Hosting any kind of media and even written content like forum pages will add up in a hurry for server expenses. Expenses that have to be paid somehow.
Which raises question about where Dischord is getting this funding from, and how evil they will become in the not too distant future when said source of funding is no longer sufficient to carry the server burden.
Dischord is not the future, its merely a convenience that has become popular.
But while it is trending, the alternatives are dying. Because people would rather have everything in one spot instead of going to find excitement out there on the digital frontier.
