I don't know why. I use the Discord server and don't like it, my messages get lost in the scrollspam and it's just a bad experience. Surely, a text field on the site would have been equally good.

You can click to add the bot to your own server and use it privately with ease. It’s quite fun!
you don't get to see other's images and talk with them in a shared chat channel with that approach (unless they build out a lot more web app). Which is half the fun of it. (Not that hard to build, but more work than a Discord bot.)
Which is half the fun for /some/ people.

What people are saying (including me) is that it's not fun for them, and Discord feels like a big hindrance instead of a benefit.

I like FPSes but I don't like multiplayer games. So I play single player FPSes, even if they are worse, because multiplayer ones are not fun for me. Craiyon, DALLE 2, and Disco Diffusion all offer a less social and direct interface in the same space as MidJourney and may be better to experiment with until MJ provides some sort of Web interface, as I imagine they will at some point.
