I just tried asking a question yesterday, and realized there's basically no way to save / bookmark / whatever a specific thing... it's seriously just a fucking chat room.

Yeah it's literally just that. I still have no idea why it's used as some kind of database by so many

It's great for what it's intended for, a gaming voice/text chat server.

Yeah I don't get the hate for Discord here. If you use it for customer service or as a substitute for documentation, I can imagine it being annoying. It's like using Excel for absolutely everything. Excel isn't that bad, it's just the people that use it badly make it so.

Seriously fuck discord

No don't, it's a good chatting service, much better than Messenger for one. Fuck users who misuse a chat app as customer “service” rather than writing documentation!
