    Discord has been a POS for years.

      It’s really funny watching them add paid features that older, established messengers have for free

          Let’s not forget an even bigger problem with Discord: It locks your communities, including contacts and years of content and discussions created by members, behind some corporation’s terms and conditions whims. You (or your friends, or the “server” admin) can lose access to it all at any time, without warning. They can and have used this as leverage to extort personal info from people. A policy change, accident, or technical glitch can leave you out in the cold.

          This alone is reason enough to avoid it.

              Computers and online tech has been popularized since the 90s, if they haven’t figured out even an iota of computer skills since then, well that’s on them

          Unrelated, but do you relize that you and the comment you reply to have the same character as profile picture? :))

          Edit: Lol, seems like it’s the same image, mirrored
