> but most of these already have alternative sites (e.g. discourse, Discord, SE)
I've seen Discord used as a platform for project-based discussion, and I just can't get into it. It just seems so fundamentally not built for long-term threads and the aggregation of information (like a wiki, for instance), and it kind of frustrates me to see some projects that are hell-bent on keeping all related discussion on Discord.
Granted, Reddit is not the greatest place for what I'm talking about either, since it also prioritizes newer self-posts/links, but I feel the clunkyness is even worse in Discord.
Same, I really don't like Discord. It probably doesn't help that I only use it when I have to but it makes me feel tired trying to find specific information even in smaller Discord groups, and even when I know for sure it's there.
