Both are what a newcomer reads first on GitHub, and both are now wrong in ways that undersell the client and, in one place, describe something removed.

README.md:

  • "Discord is voice only for now." Camera, screen share both ways, stream sound, quality, soundboard and stages all exist.
  • "Where Discord demands a captcha to add a friend or join a server, it opens in a moho window." Removed on 1 October: those go to discord.com, deliberately (#185, #188).

ARCHITECTURE.md (last touched 13 September), the Discord paragraph:

  • "password" login - retired (#197); sign-in is QR or Discord's own page.
  • "calls with real audio (Songbird)" and "No video or screen share" - voice, video and Go Live are hand-rolled connections with DAVE now.
  • "Where Discord asks for a captcha, it is shown in a window of moho's own" - removed.
  • Nothing about Matrix forwarding, Kick's player, stickers, events, AutoMod.

Read both end to end against the code rather than patching only these lines.
