Discord is a nail in the coffin of forums. Everything is so splintered and fucked now. Can't be searched or archived properly either. It's kinda completely fucked a fundamental part of the internet.

I used to run a forum for me an all my high school buddies to shoot the shit. If you pay like... 5 bucks a month, you can have plenty of space to hold user images on-site

No need for photobucket or that other one I can't remember the name of

discord is some monkey-paw web 3.0 shit

I like discord. But there's value in having a slower paced place to conversate.

Reddit is cancer because it ties one account to everything you say.

That is bad times. That one guy who asked questions at a political thing got his dirty laundry aired in public because he also used that same account to post about like, liking pregnant women or something.

everything is pretty ephemeral, and many awesome things that could and would otherwise be on forums and bookmarkable etc are now locked in some random fucking discord. Maybe it's "pinned" for a while but even those spaces run out, so great content that could otherwise be on a forum is pretty inaccessible and lost.

admittedly plenty of it wouldn't be on a forum, and would be lost in even-more-ephemeral chatrooms but the idea still stands

The amount of times "you are x poster" is used to invalidate an argument is shocking on Reddit

Just because Hitler says your house isnonnfire and it's Hitler. Doesn't mean your house is not on fire

if even a fraction of content posted in all these hundreds of discord communities was on forums instead, there'd be some pretty great threads to lurk

Eh, forums are the same

Having one unified persona across the entire internet is just a bad idea

twitter also took a bite out of forum usage, but at least it's still proper ungated internet. It's not some fucking random app with gated communities

and mirrored windows

I've got like 3 usernames

Except archivable solutions to problems most threads necro after a couple months

Hey fucko, install the tapatalk app
