gollark: Also that it's free, convenient and has voice chat and stuff.

gollark: It seems like Discord just use it to push content restrictions and stuff. Also, their (mandatory for "community" servers) NSFW filter is apparently not good and has high false positive rates.
gollark: :( indeed. I am not really a fan of the "partner" and "community servers" thing.
