Lots of users gush over Discord for some reason. My impression is that more technically minded people don't really like it, but your average user uses it for almost everything and encourages more services they like to use it. Hence why many reddit subs moved to Discord - the mods didn't necessarily prefer it, but they were sent an overwhelming number of requests from their users.

Thanks for the heads up, i guess I just a bit too old to have been part of the discord group.

In the country where I live, it’s all Facebook messenger. It’s a shame as o think a number of people don’t really care for it, but everyone and every business uses it so we are kind stuck.

Yeah I mean I don't understand it either. Telegram is bad enough for me, can't be assed with Discord.
