Main point was that you can't access or view it without creating the account at first, or even being able to find the whole server.
You might even need to give phone number before you can view anything.
Then wait 30min to verify that you are not a bot.
And all this to find a solution for a problem which you might never return to.
The search in Discord is kinda terrible.
Also, if you are couple days or even hours late for the discussion, it might be too late to take part or continue it in large communities. Discord lives in the moment, it is not a place to store information.
On the other hand, on forums, it is not a problem to continue some discussion couple days later. The quality is often much much higher.
- moffkalast 4y agoNot sure what you mean, you just need one account for all of Discord, joining a new server is just one click away. Or do you make a new account for each server? That seems unreasonably hard to keep track of. I guess the search could be better but I've never really had too many problems with it and I've seen far far worse implementations. Such as Rocket Chat which has completely broken search. Literally never returns anything. But yes chat is chat, you can't compare it to a forum style board because they're not trying to do the same thing. You do typically need both a Discourse and a chat server for any major organization.
