#Discord is such a horrible chat experience. When you’re trying to read back content jumps around whenever a new message is being sent to the channel you’re reading. It also has a lot of bells and whistles that don’t offer anything aside from distractions.
If you enjoy my stuff and/or want an #LGBT/#Queer friendly space with lots of chill gamers, assorted queer peeps, no children, and absurdist humor, come join:
Heute am Sonntag Abend (07.04.) erzählt @bekopharm im "Wissenstalk Am Sonntag" etwas über das Spielen unter Linux. Besonderer Fokus liegt hier auf einem seiner (Proton-) Lieblingsspiele "Elite Dangerous".
Miałem ostatnio konwersację ze znajomymi odnośnie lepszego komunikatora grupowego w zespole IT. I pojawił się odwieczny problem:
Slack vs Discord
Co uważacie i jak byście argumentowali za jedną lub drugą opcją? Oczywiście, są też inne (pomijając Teams), natomiast te dwa zdecydowanie dominują w dyskusji i inna opcja musiałaby mieć naprawdę coś specjalnego, aby być w ogóle rozważana.

#SocialMedia#Discord#AdTech#Ads#Advertising: "Discord had long been strongly opposed to ads, but starting this week, it's giving video game makers the ability to advertise to its users. The introduction of so-called Sponsored Quests marks a notable change from the startup's previous business model, but, at least for now, it seems much less intrusive than the ads shoved into other social media platforms, especially since Discord users can choose not to engage with them.
Discord first announced Sponsored Quests on March 7, with Peter Sellis, Discord's SVP of product, writing in a blog post that users would start seeing them in the "coming weeks." Sponsored Quests offer PC gamers in-game rewards for getting friends to watch a stream of them playing through Discord. Discord senior product communications manager Swaleha Carlson confirmed to Ars Technica that Sponsored Quests launch this week." https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/04/discord-starts-down-the-dangerous-road-of-ads-this-week/

The sad and hilarious thing is that computer nerds already control the means of production they're just not doing anything with it other than what they're told.
@mhoye Then, they opted for #github to host their code, they built it around Github's CI/CD. They adopted #copilot. Ah, they also built their community on #discord and release their work on centralized proprietary platforms (e.g. #googleplay). Now, they own nothing.
