It seems like Discord is catered a lot to making internet friends, which is fine but something I have zero interest in. If that's all it was used for I couldn't care less, but I hate that niche communities are increasingly putting information that used to exist on public, easily archivable forums behind the veil of Discord where the signal-to-noise ratio is awful because of the aforementioned internet friend stuff. I get that it's useful for real-time collaboration, but there's no need for it to have subsumed the slower-pace activities.
