Software projects that don’t want to use one of the normal hosting sites. I’ve seen this far too often where the only link for a download or documentation is just a discord link.
Most times I see this with “fan projects” like video game mods and remakes
Agree, but on the other hand there seems to be quite a few subs favoring Discord rather than Lemmy, so it seems like some people still consider them close enough.
Lemmy is not a good alternative to discord though.
For what discord is supposed to be, no
For what discord keeps being used for even though it shouldn’t be because of NUMEROUS problems with it, yes yes it is
can you give an example? what’s a circumstance where discord shouldn’t be used?
Used as a forum. It’s supposed to be for communication, not as a forum or for storing documentation.
