Discord won't make it. I find reddit useful because for any particular query I want a mostly user-based answer for I can google term + reddit. Discord jsut doesn't have the same discourse because it's designed for quick back-and-forth chats, not more in-depth self-supporting commentary.

It just doesn't fulfill the same purpose. IME, I ignore discords from most subreddits because they do basically nothing for me unless it's a topic i'm extremely interested and engaged in.



What about discord threads?


More a way for already engaged users to start another conversation while in the same channel. It doesn't serve the same purpose as reddit.

Regardless of anything discord does, the lack of searchability will always be a core problem compared to reddit.
