- dageshi 3y agoI am no expert on Discord, I frankly have used it little. But my impression is, it's a replacement for subreddits? Not a replacement for reddit in the whole? Is there a single feed of everything that's popular within Discord? Like the equivalent of the reddit front page?
- adamc 3y agoNo. Then again, I never use the reddit front page, and don't care (personally). If subreddits move, reddit's front page won't avail them much.
- guraf 3y agoSo one would have to check every channels on every server they subscribe to, every day, just to see what's new? And you consider that a replacement for the Reddit home page? I have several hundred subreddits, that would take me forever on discord.
- OGWhales 3y agoWhile it’s not a 1:1 replacement, I have to agree this is the most likely alternative for niche communities to live. It’s already common for certain subreddits to have a discord server and direct users there.
