Discord is by far the worst place for a community to retreat to because it's resources and discussions are impossible to find through cursory searching and I'm so sick of adding to my list of Discord servers just to get information that belongs on a Pastebin or Github readme.
In many ways though, Lemmy has grown into something that is active much faster than so many other kinds of social media platforms. Does anyone remember Disapora or Google+ being the next Facebook or Facebook replacement? What about Wit social? Most definitely do not.
