Yeah… shooting some nonsense back and forth. But game devs that shoehorn stuff into discord making everything objectively worse while making everything unfindable… it drives me nuts!

discord requires a phone number to create an account. hard pass.

It’s an excellent chat program (except it’s pretty buggy on mobile). But it doesn’t function well as a forum replacement. The lack of discoverability is a big problem.

Well yeah, because it’s not a forum.

It’s increasing taking up the role of one. And I’m sad about it.
I might stop being sad if its forum features become more used and Discord massively improved discoverability, but for now it sucks for people googling problems.

My rule of thumb is, if it says, “Join our Discord,” I move on. I’ll only join a Discord if I want to discuss something, not if I want answers to questions.

On one hand we have to move away from Google. On the other hand information should be made available to people. Hopefully we are just in a transitional phase and this isn’t just reigning in a internet dark age.
