I spent years, but I didn’t find any interesting acquaintances, and I came across such people that I thought I was in the Stone Age, I seemed to be dumb by 25 percent at least when I communicated in discord or I was terribly bored, it’s difficult to explain, but that’s about how I can describe my experience.
I only use it to communicate with people who I already know or are in the same social circles as me. I do not use it to meet new people.
It’s a useful took for organizing server wide events and playing with friends.
I hate the SAAS enshittification it’s undergoing with the rest of the web. Having to pay for profile customizations shouldn’t be a thing. I remember editing my Neopets profile with HTML when I was 12. No paying, just learning how to tinker.
I really hate how groups are using it as a file storage system instead of running websites that are indexed and easier to find. But that’s on them.
