I find the switch to hosting communities on proprietary closed platforms kind of bad in terms of access to the vast knowledge and archiving it for future generations. When discord will go full enshittified, it will just charge a subscription fee to access the “servers”. Also they will sure as hell comply with anything if it threatens the bottom line.
It's god awful for any development discussion too. Used to be you could at least find someone taking about something on Stack Overflow even if it wasn't solved, now it's buried in Discord and you have no way of even searching it out to see if anyone has even had that problem before.
