Discord has millions of users. Less than 1000 people are probably bothered at Google to fix the problem.

My sympathies lie with Discord users. I’m sure it’s ruining a lot more weekend plans with them.

I’ve both a discord user and someone that has spent years in an on-call rotation that included nights and weekends.

and discord's 3rd party client policy is not doing them any favours

Annoyed at being on call: How dare they do their expected responsibilities in exchange for pay. The nerve of them.

It's very possible they're not "officially" on call and don't get any extra pay for having to work in the weekend. Just because that's the current expectation of a lot of salaried workers doesn't mean it's right.
