discord literally having a concurrent controversy (the name change); and they feel it good to go there?
besides. discord is useless as a reddit replacement. discord is not indexed and you cannot retrieve the data publicly; much like facebook groups which would be the same thing. i mean; who doesn't (or didn't) use +reddit in their google searches for the past 2 years?
discord has also been bleeding users lately.
and, it's another corporation. worse than reddit. with a poor track record.
but sure! let's move to there! sounds brilliant! i'm sure all will be well!
...what's next, facebook groups?
Facebook groups, for their many failings are still miles better than discord tbh
Yeah, even if searching content is atrocious, and it focuses on the latest posts by design (like reddit) so you have the same questions posted multiple times a day. And the tool doesn't even support the goal of the users. It's still a more appropriate tool than discord. Plus, it has the userbase.
