I'm on board with this, but I may be biased because I also don't like using Discord for anything else. Every time someone sends me a Discord invite I feel a little defeated, because it is usually after I have agreed to participate in something.

I feel that way about Teams/Sharepoint/Office. I'm happy to serve on a board or committe, until I find out they're using Teams or Sharepoint. Microsoft's SSO is a fucking mess. Put in your email to get a one-time code, get that code and enter it, then it logs you in and asks for an email address to be added to the account. Add the same email address you just got the code via, and it tells you it can't use that email address. But if I don't use that email address, it won't let me into the Sharepoint docs.

It's just a fucking nightmare. I fucked around with one committee trying to get the accounts deleted and done the Microsoft ^TM^ way and finally gave up and bowed out of that group.

It's an upgrade over Skype, but a downgrade over forums and irc. I setup a discord for some tech troubled friends because I didn't think they could handle anything else and even that was trying for some of them.
