You don't have to link anything but what kind of discord servers? Also the problem with discord for me is the fact that information only exists momentarily. Reddit search is bad but at least you can Google. Discord servers are basically impenetrable if you can't check it constantly

Yeah I just can’t grok discord as a replacement for message boards

It’s a chat system. It’s a very nice IRC but how are you supposed to get up to speed? I’m also feeling super out of touch with folk who use telegram as social media.

No way I’m staying connected all the time to be a regular. Too many chats and the quality of the content is not very high to be engaging

Yeah I'm not saying its a good replacement, it's actually atrocious but its already replaced reddit and is where the actual users are now.

Reddit doesn't know it yet but they're already very deep in the twilight phase of their site and it's going to start accelerating.
