Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. (www-xataka-com.translate.goog)

What are we going to do about it?

Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

In my head Discord = toxicity. Not sure how it got that rep for me but it has gotten it. Thus, wont lose sleep if it dies out. Perhaps I am wrong. Reviewing rationality of this prejudice is on my ToDo List after a million other things...

No worries! The only reason to evaluate (or re-evaluate) a piece of software is if you have a need or desire the software might fulfill. And if you don't have either, it literally doesn't matter, lol.

Discord isn't like reddit though, you don't have the userbase spread out across the same space regardless of the users. For discord every server is a standalone community and they're each going to have their own standards of civility.
