    Seriously, I don’t know why people are so obsessed with creating pointless discord servers. Is it really that hard to host files elsewhere?

      I have one for my friends, (I know, I know, matrix), and that’s how I think discord should be used. It’s original purpose, friends hanging out. Now it’s every megacorp has a discord server and all their fans just fawn over them there. Pass for me, I just want voice and text chat with friends.

        I don’t understand how people hang out in these places. It just doesn’t seem like a system conducive to discussion. The forum/link aggregator format works much better imo

          For large groups absolutely, chat moves so fast that there’s no way that it can mean anything. Trying to get help in a gaming discord is just terrible.

          However for a small group of friends it’s great, using discord for what it was meant to be used for (chatting with friends about games, setting up gaming nights, voice chat) is perfect.
