    yeah because everyone uses Discord as a replacement for web sites even though it's a terrible format for storing and searching information

    This is me but it's because discord is probably one of the worst attention devouring app out there and in general i avoid it like plague, any rooms that aren't set to where you can send one message per one or five minutes are basically unfollowable if you step away from your phone for ten minutes and completely useless as a forum, bring back MyBB.

      It really sort of depends on the size of the community. The one I'm in that's just me and my friends has about 30 people in it, and the rate of posting is quite comfortable outside of the odd 5000 word rant

    discord is dogshit. please never organize anything there if you can avoid it, don't give them free network effect

      I hate that people now just use discord instead of forums. It's a data blackhole

        yep. years of collective wasted effort are poured into the blackhole each day. even reddit is better, at least it gets scraped by search engines

    I probably joined your stupid discord server because I needed to download a single file on there which wasn't available anywhere else

    <20 member Discord: mute the bot channels, otherwise keep it real.

    Anything else: mute that garbage

    I am pretty anal about notifications honestly. Always keep my inboxes clean. I also am only in 1 active small server so it's not too hard to keep up with it.

    I've had discord for ages nkw and I still don't understand what it's for apart from vc. The channels are fn spamfests and the emotes are paywalled

    That's me. I hate discord, but it's literally the only way that I can communicate with some people, and do hobby stuff. So I just have it set up so that only @mentions will rouse me.

    not a smart idea, if the server gets nuked you could possibly get banned.
