Discord being down is a good time to remind everyone that information should be in forums or wikis, not channels on Discord servers that can't be searched easily, aren't indexed by web search engines, require you to join a chatroom, and can disappear at any time because server can just be deleted.
Bring back websites and forums, stop putting all the content on the internet inside walled gardens controlled by big tech companies.

@bubbline@rolle i rlly hope at some point discourse gets a federated identity system - i hate signing up for yet another account per community a la slack, i’d rather have one or multiple global accounts like Discord

@bubbline Let's reject all forms of social media and go back to low-level text-based forms, just as it was intended.

@bubbline
Honest question, (I didn't heard about discourse before)
Why is this better than Discord?
