And it doesn't make sense as Discord doesn't even work like Reddit does.
With Reddit you have posts and comments, but with Discord you have an ongoing discussion. With Reddit communication is async, but with Discord it's live.
I even use Discord, but the forum model is superior for almost all interactions I'm interested in.
