How familiar are you with IRC?
I was told by someone that IRC is kind of what discord is built on. Maybe the answer is someone in that relation, if what i was told is accurate or not
Discord copies a lot of concepts from IRC, like servers and threads are almost identical. But it isn't technically based on IRC. Maybe your friend mixed it up with Twitch chat which is actual IRC only slightly modified.
Oh maybe! thanks for letting me know
