Yeh discord is an absolute mess imo. As soon as there are any decent number of people it just becomes like a bloody twitch stream chat.
It’s a chat app, not a forum or Reddit replacement. I wish people would stop suggesting it as one.
Discord is also at least 2 completely different experiences IME. If you're in a niche server, it can sort of work like reddit with threads etc, because there's like one reply every 30 minutes to a day or 3.
If you're in a busy community it's clearly not at all like reddit, and is like all the huge chat rooms of the past and range from immediate interaction time waster to completely unusable for anything except watching text fly by.
