Fuck Discord when it's used in lieu of a forum, documentation or proper support channels.

Well...Forums need to be maintained. Discord is free and easy and fast to use.
Discord should allow the servers to be browsable. But you can only participate by logging in.

Doesnt Disqus handle it like that as well? Same account on every website utilizing disqus?

It just isn't, if you don't already have an account with them. And even then, I personally find ich horrible to use.

Honestly, you ever tried to look back through a long thread on Discord? It's impossible. If you want to read the original message that started the thread, good luck, you'll be scrolling all day and may never get there. How anyone can claim that's "easy to use" is beyond me.

Discord works for quick discussions happening right now, and that's it.
