I guess we started with pictographs of some kind, we might as well go full circle. :)
I try to minimize what I do on Discord, too. Only recently, within the last six months, have I actually been able to get a few answers to questions I had. Initially, nada. And for places that are supposedly trying to accomplish something, there seems to be more idle chatting than anything else, all on top of one another so that it's difficult to follow, and mostly about topics I'm not interested in repeating. First time ever on Discord turned me off from it completely, if the name discord itself wasn't enough to do it. Who decides to call an online chat/voice service, discord, anyway? Do we want to invite backbiting and infighting? :)
I hear ya loud and clear with Discord...It's a gamers thing I guess, and we know how they can be. Lol
I prefer to use it only when I need to communicate, like with Asher yesterday on that arcange thing. (Arcange apologised by the way). I got on Discord chatted one to one with Asher and bibbety bobbety boo...Solved.
I don't know man, I think many just have nothing better to do and so spend their time in Discord. I've always had a problem with a monetised platform playing out off the platform like on Discord. Yes, do the back end stuff there, but engage on the platform. Just my opinion.
