Yeah but the Discord users still aren’t interested in anything more organized because it’s more work for them. The creators/admins might want Lemmy instead but it’s not going to work without the users moving too.
Agree, but on the other hand there seems to be quite a few subs favoring Discord rather than Lemmy, so it seems like some people still consider them close enough.
They are two different applications to fill different needs. There is some overlap but only because people try to make things what they aren’t designed to be. I tried Discord out when searching for a modern version of IRC, partially trying to find some nostalgia, but secondly to find discussion replacements for my niche Reddit subs. I wasn’t a fan, it’s too much and not easily navigable for me, so I take what I can get here.
Lemmy is not a good alternative to discord though.
For what discord is supposed to be, no
For what discord keeps being used for even though it shouldn’t be because of NUMEROUS problems with it, yes yes it is
can you give an example? what’s a circumstance where discord shouldn’t be used?
Used as a forum. It’s supposed to be for communication, not as a forum or for storing documentation.
