There are quite a few posts on Reddit about Lemmy, but what about Discord? Have people here tried to talk about Lemmy there? What was your experience? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

For what discord is supposed to be, no

For what discord keeps being used for even though it shouldn't be because of NUMEROUS problems with it, yes yes it is

can you give an example? what's a circumstance where discord shouldn't be used?

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

Used as a forum. It's supposed to be for communication, not as a forum or for storing documentation.

Software projects that don't want to use one of the normal hosting sites. I've seen this far too often where the only link for a download or documentation is just a discord link.

Most times I see this with "fan projects" like video game mods and remakes

Yeah but the Discord users still aren't interested in anything more organized because it's more work for them. The creators/admins might want Lemmy instead but it's not going to work without the users moving too.
