Am I the odd one out for actually liking discord? Or is most of this hate specifically for using discord for FOSS projects? As a replacement for MSN Messenger/Skype/Ventrillo Discord is actually pretty great for hanging out with friends
Discord is an OK chat app. But it's TERRIBLE as a support forum. It's precisely the latter that everyone is complaining about.
the hate is because discord actively makes it harder to find and get support for anything. It's adding extra steps to something that doesnt need them.
I use discord to chat with my friends and weird people online, not to complain about the nonfunctional nature of software to people i dont know.
For chatting with friends it's fine! The hate is when it's used for public documentation and communication, because it isn't public.
Even worse if there's a github page, but they've disabled issues and discussions.
Oh my fuck I'm so glad these characters died out. Dolan memes were the bane of my existence while they were a thing.
I use Discord with friends for a weekly online D&D game in what’s basically a glorified conference calls. It’s fine for that use-case, but it fucking sucks for trying to do anything organized or having on-topic conversations or looking up any sort of stored information. I kind of hate it when game companies have shit on there and you have to search/sort through hundreds of unconnected chat snippets to find answers to questions.
Its awful, history isnt kept, requires account creation on a non FLOSS app. It sucks. Forums were better.
