Has Discord become the dominant platform for bilateral messaging anywhere? I've never heard it being used outside of crypto and gaming chat rooms.
I talk to my friends on Discord almost exclusively, though one of the communities I'm in is also bridged to Matrix. I do not do crypto or gaming really.
We use Discord at a small startup. It's nice because we can easily get our external clients on and make rooms for giving them customer support without going through the janky slack process. We also have public channels so people can come by and report bugs or ask for help. Highly recommend Discord. It's a great product.
discord is great if i want to talk to weird gamer dudes. not so much if i want to talk to my mom.
