@nano@esm does discord actually call them “servers” or is that just the community term for it, like how in the 80s people called NES cartridges “tapes?”
@alex@esm@nano yeah I knew the internal term is “guild,” I just thought they might use some other term like “group” or “community” in public, not “server”
@fluffy@alex@esm they have "group" for group chats which are single channel chats with no permissions and a maximum of 10 people and they do throw the word "community" around to refer to large public servers but yeah the primary word is "server"
@nano@alex@esm yeah, thanks for clarifying! Their terminology is a mess and that’s a big part of why I thought “server” might be a de-facto thing rather than an official thing.

@fluffy @esm internally and on the backend they're called guilds, but on the frontends and almost anything userfacing they say "server"
