Take my own changing habits, for example: over a span of 15 years, I "migrated" from MySpace to Tumblr to Reddit and a few news websites. I have only ever used Facebook except to promote a website. I think tens of millions of people, mostly young guys, prefer playing videos games over any form of social networking or even writing comments in response to ANY type of content.

And Discord really don't much power over their userbase unlike Facebook (have massive networking effect) and Twitter (have popular personalities). If Discord ever going to mess with things like censorship or forcing people into paid plans users could migrate really fast.

* Gamers are either tech-savvy or always have friends who are.

* Gamers stick to their small communities and leaders. If you superstar and announce that you're leaving Facebook nobody will follow, but gamers always follow their group / clan / whatever leaders.

* Also there is at least few companies like Valve, Blizzard, Epic Games who hold huge part of the market and have extremely loyal customers. They could certainly manage to set competition for Discord if there will be opening.
