    Discord sucks for what forums are good for. Forums are great for durable discussions that can be indexed, searched, discovered, and referenced. Discord? It’s only good at real time conversations

      I don’t get the popularity of discord. You have to wade through so much casual conversation to find anything of value.

        It’s great for the things it does well, but then people get locked into a “when you have a nice hammer, every problem looks like a nail” mindset
