Discord is an OK chat app. But it's TERRIBLE as a support forum. It's precisely the latter that everyone is complaining about.

I also need to point out here that anything posted to discord is now their intellectual property by law. That's quite a deal breaker and honestly should not work with any open source projects

I didn't know that. That single reason alone is enough to completely exclude discord from open source projects.
