We have another event that invites people over to our side!
Bye bye Discord, you were never that good to begin with anyway.
I will never understand the move from forums to discord. when discord is the only way to get assistance, I go find another product.
Discord is terrible for assistance.
Search is ineffective, you have to actually fight the UI to go back to older messages, depending on the device there are still somehow cases in which you can’t go back to the beginning of a thread. But thank you for putting a huge reminder that I am currently “reading through old messages”, silly me, why would I want to do that.
Oh, you’re trying to scroll down through old posts? Let me suddenly refresh the list for no reason and bring you back to the most recent ones. Everything past the third screen might as well not exist anymore.
And of course, there is the slight problem of every useful info written there being completely invisible to the rest of the internet.
You’re booming. Discord search is fine but you dont even need to search. Seeking assistance is easy > join post > get notified when someone answers you.
Compared to forums where you have to create and account post an introduction then deep dive on the forum to make sure your question hasnt been asked before then write up s big detailed post only for the mod to remove your post because it was in the wrong place.
The point is the first step in getting assistance is checking you’re not asking something that has been solved one hundred times before.
And you don’t even need to be registered to do that in a forum. in fact you don’t even need to know the forum exists, because search engines can find them for you.
You’re just counting on people having nothing else to do than help people by repeating the same basic stuff forever.
What do i say to my friends to get them to leave? Ive already tried and they won’t.
Sadly this change won’t really affect them so they are not going to care. I’ve wanted to leave for a long time now.

I just abruptly switched to Matrix and encouraged anyone who wanted to get a hold of me to do the same, held my ground and did not look back, now a good handful of my friends have a Matrix account.
Fuck Discord is the common message now, but how about we amplify good alternatives? It’ll be easier to tell Discord to fuck off if we’re already set to move elsewhere.
Forum’s, websites, all the shit we used to do.
