Going to play the devil's advocate for a minute here.
I've found discord's search feature to be quite powerful, specially if servers are well partitioned into channels based on topic, and are searched(and therefore indexed) semi-frequently. It's not as good as a search engine, but throwing some keywords in there does often get me the answer I'm looking for.
Also regarding irrelevant chatter, discord's gotten a lot better with that since the recent introduction of the threads feature, allowing each discussion to branch off into its own thread instead of getting intermingled.
- MereInterest 5y agoDiscord's search cannot look across multiple "servers". If I remember saying something to one of three groups of friends, but cannot remember which one it was, I need to repeat the search once for each "server".
- rcarmo 5y agoIt is still much worse than searching a forum, at least in my experience. Or just using Google.
