Notes -
I dislike discord. Not just because of the discord -> degeneracy meme, but because so much tech specific knowledge is now hidden in a generally unsearchable archive where the only way to find it is BY joining and searching various discords. At least forums have a single post buried in the google archives from 15 years ago. With discord suddenly a huge amount of information is gated, and short of 'joining the community' it's impossible to locate the information now.
A problem that took me two days to iron out could have been done in 15 minutes if I simply remembered that Discord = information. However, my general use of discord means that connection in my mind doesn't take place.
I like Discord. Not because of anything that goes on on the public servers, but because the private servers are much better than group texts for chatting with real life friends. I have several friend groups that have annoying group chats where they go off all day and at some points the topic gets changed to inside stuff among family members that should be private texts but hell, it's easier to respond to a text that's already going on. The main advantage is it's easier to add someone if necessary or for someone to remove themselves instead of having to start an entirely new thread, plus I can use a real computer for longer messages.
