Yeah, they even use the new Discord logo throughout the entire application, in fact this whole thing looks like a really weird scam or phishing site. I have no question about the tech, or how good it is, but aligning itself so close is suicide and worrisome.

I didn't look too closely at it, but apparently it is just a discord _client_. I'm not sure what the point of having a 3rd party client that is essentially a clone is if you're still using the official servers anyway?
From briefly looking at their site I'm pretty sure it is both a client for official Discord servers and they also have Discord API-compatible backend it can connect to as well. Which is actually pretty smart
