Well yeah, because it’s not a forum.

It’s increasing taking up the role of one. And I’m sad about it.

I might stop being sad if its forum features become more used and Discord massively improved discoverability, but for now it sucks for people googling problems.

My rule of thumb is, if it says, “Join our Discord,” I move on. I’ll only join a Discord if I want to discuss something, not if I want answers to questions.

Same here, except I won’t go on Discord for discussion either. I really loath the platform. I’d even go back on the dumpster fire that is Telegram before I go back to Discord. Good thing IRC still exists.

That’s cool in principle, but what if I actually want help?

On one hand we have to move away from Google. On the other hand information should be made available to people. Hopefully we are just in a transitional phase and this isn’t just reigning in a internet dark age.

Well I said Google but ideally that would be “a healthy market of several competing quality search engines”.

Right now I think we only have Google and Bing. (Lots of alternatives like DuckDuckGo ultimately use Google I think)

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you’re new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

  • Anon is often crazy.
  • Anon is often depressed.
  • Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
