ok

But that's a completely different thing than what you originally said ("Pretty much everyone uses Discord now.").

I is the operative part here. Personally I've never used discord, and I don't know anybody IRL that has to the point that they have asked me to join and if they did I would probably refuse. I have enough comms channels as it is.

It is important to realize that when you speak in generalized terms you are usually just speaking for yourself, so better to phrase things that way.
