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
Yeah but the Discord users still aren’t interested in anything more organized because it’s more work for them. The creators/admins might want Lemmy instead but it’s not going to work without the users moving too.
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.
