I think this is crazily important. My biggest issue with Discord is that they have become the default hubs for issues and fixes. Over days, weeks, months and years those fixes get buried and harder to find, but the worst offender is that they are unindexable by default.
Its lovely to see someone doing this. I wish everyone would do this.
As ever, if you don't know Heroic, you can find their website with this link here
Because you can make a Discord server with a few clicks. It's super easy. I wish more people used things indexable by search engines too, but you really can't deny how incredibly easy Discord is from the side of the people wanting to set up something.
And everyone already has an account, they can just press a button to join the server and be interacting straight away.
You can make a lemmy community in a few clicks if you don't want to run your own instance.
I am using the terminology Discord uses. I am aware it is not a server in the traditional sense. Be angry with them, not me.
