#2. With Discord, I would love to have it move in the other direction, from being a game-centric network to more of interest-centric network. Parts of this already exist — there’s a way to search through open invite communities — but it’s not as explicit as I’d like: most of times to find a niche discord group, you first have to visit its respective subreddit and find the invite link beneath all the clutter. Sometimes, there isn’t even a direct subreddit: to find a summer intern group, I had to dig through numerous threads of r/cscq. The downside of this type of network is moderation: subreddits now can self moderate but with chat, it’s higher volume and no filter by upvoting enabled.
