@atomicpoet It's just bad reporting. A quick read of Discord's WP page would have cleared up the confusion for them. (Well, maybe.) But they're half right. Individual Discord 'servers' ("guilds" in the backend lingo) are a lot like subreddits, in that they're part of the whole system, but (mostly) run by non-company users. But any similarity to Mastodon stops there. This reporter clearly didn't get it. Discord likely borrowed this usage from WoW, which works similarly.
