I really hope they don’t replace Reddit with Discord, it’s a closed-source software with data not being indexable by a search engine. Even if they did find a solution to index all that data into a search engine, it would be awful to have to install a software to actually see/interact with it.
Well the good news is if you actually go to the Discords who attempted to move over from subreddits, they’re all unnavigable messes with zero way to actually find new information or posts, so the whole thing has been a failure. Why people thought a cringy closed source gamer chat platform was a good replacement is beyond me. They were wrong and the results show this. Discord is not for that use case and is not remotely a Reddit replacement.

Not to mention it’s almost impossible to keep up with a very active Discord server
Yeah, I’m too old for that pace of information. Would have loved it in my younger days though.
I ran up a $300 bill on AOL chat rooms when I was 12
Even more impressive once you consider inflation
