    F discord. cancer of the internet. it is even worse than everything facebook or whatever. also gatekeeping content behind a software of a very shady company + forcing phone number for registration are just so many “no go”

      I mean, I think Discord itself is fine

      I think how people are using discord as an info source is a huge issue.

      It’s a good form of Chat messenger, something you wouldn’t want to index (99.9% of it would be spam)

      But pretty much in 10-20 years we’ll probably have a ton of communities have complete breakdowns because they stored all their information somewhere that doesn’t let them take it with them when they leave.

      Basically I think Discord is just going past what it was designed to do.
