The only way to use Discord is to mute all servers, and just browse what and when you want to. You can usually opt into roles to get important notifications about what you want.
The need to mute is annoying, and the search function is garbage, but otherwise Discord is pretty great.
- Apreche 4y agoThis is the way. I agree that joining a server, everything in it should be muted by default. Or at least, there should be some global option you can set to mute all channels in a newly joined server by default. The way I manage Discord is: 1) Join as few servers as possible. There are even some servers I will join, chat, and leave. Customer support servers are a common case for that. 2) 99% of servers you join total mute. Only go to them when there is an intentional reason to go to them. 3) There are maybe 1 or 2 servers that are "my home". The close friends Discord. The Discord server that I run. Places like that. Even in those places I mute the channels I don't regularly participate in. In the end, even though I am in 15ish servers, I only have 15ish unmuted channels that have any significant amount of activity. It's not any different than having irssi open with 15 channels across the bottom. Hardly unmanageable.
