Discord "clicked" for me when I realized it's arranged hiearchally from left to right. Select the server you want on the left, the chanel you want to the right of that, and view the individual messages to the right of that. Also for OP: you can right click on any server or channel you don't need all the time and mute it so you don't get notification spam.
