    Why didn’t these mods suggest Lemmy/Kbin instead of Discord? I don’t get the appeal of Discord. Why would you want to be in a massive chat room with a bunch of strangers?

      I agree. I dont get why people use things like discord or slack to discuss stuff especially with lots of users.

        which you can’t access without joining the “server”, and they’re completely inaccessible to search engines, so there’s no way of finding them without knowing which “server” to join.

        Yeah, but it’s still Discord. They’re jumping from one platform run by a dodgy corporation to another.

        Oh interesting. What’s Discord’s gameplan? Same as the rest? Capture a bunch of users then go full corporate fuck the users strategy? The ol “try this amazing free thing! Contribute content with your friends!……” “thx now pay us to access all the content you freely contributed. Kthx bye. Also we are selling all your data. Kthx.”

          I have no idea. I didn’t even know they had these until people were suggesting we move to discord from Reddit a couple months ago.

          I use discord the same as you. Hop in a voice chat with friends and then close discord. I’ve never used it for anything other than a bloated ass voice chat client lol

          Edit: didn’t realize you were a different person. I use discord the same as the other guy I replied to.
