Discord is not meant to be a private messenger. And you really shouldn't use it as one!

Things that Discord should be:

  • Small group voice chats (eg gaming groups)
  • Community chat, like IRC back in the day

Things that Discord shouldn't be:

  • IM client
  • Forum
  • Knowledge repository
  • Streaming platform

Knowledge repository

I die a little inside every time I see people posting documentation on locked discord threads

I've come to find one of the most annoying things to read back on Reddit is "go look it up on the Discord." That's like reading a book that references to look up text scribbled on a napkin.
