I also think the way a lot of people use discord needs to not be a chat in a chat client. It needs to be the ‘discuss’ page on a fucking wiki and i swear putting that shit on chat has lost us collectively a decade of knowledge.
I agree with you, especially when it comes to tech stuff. But those people are only one group - and Discord actually does a better job filling the needs of other groups (thanks to its marriage of streaming and messaging technology) that alternative apps can’t really compete with.
