Discord has a discovery problem. Your in channels you get invited to or made aware of, and most of those channels are echo chambers where the people running the channel are obsessed with getting you to post in them (even if its complete nonsense)
There are some quality discord channels, but how do you learn about or get invited to them in the first place?
- mcv 5y agoIn this particular case, one of my favourite RPG writers posted about it on MeWe. He, together with some other RPG writers, runs the place. It's tied to their Patreon, they organise talks and workshops for members. Most of the channels are about RPGs of course, but they have channels about tons of other topics too. One of my favourites is their channel about TV & movies, because there I get to discuss TV shows and movies with people who tend to have a similar taste as I do. It's absolutely an echo chamber; it's mostly people who grew up with British roleplaying games in the 1980s and still love them today. But it's a fun group.
