That may be true in the technical sense, but discord uses the term "server" to refer to the collection of channels (text and voice) that it allows you to create. i.e. individual discord communities are called "servers".
It might not square with the traditional hardware definition of the the word, but it's being used correctly here.
- Atheros 4y agoAnd that technical distinction doesn't matter right up until the moment it does, which is why we're here today. While the distinction is obvious to most HN users, I would bet that it isn't to many Discord users. When Discord users create a 'server', I would bet that many of them do not understand how few rights they have, specifically because they are being purposely mislead by Discord.
