Discord is convenient and polished, plus there’s only one Discord and many already have an account there. I don’t agree that it’s a good alternative to Reddit but I can see why people might find it more appealing than something like a Lemmy instance. I think federated social media can become more appealing but to do so it’s going to have become extremely well-polished and full of features to overcome the need to choose an instance and register an account. There’s not much room for rough edges.
