Someone recently asked if there was a neat way to see where all of the now broken down subreddits moved.
Some moved to Discord, some to Lemmy, and some are somewhere else.
This seems to be a good place to find your communities again: https://sub.rehab/
Discord is such an awful alternative to choose.

Using discord as a replacement is like permanently sorting by new. I really like the voting mechanic and that’s what set Reddit apart, along with subreddits.
It’s not functionally the same.
Exactly. Switching from Reddit to Discord is just switching from a website controlled by one evil corporation to one controlled by a different evil corporation. Discord is still in hyper-growth mode, so they aren’t going to be screwing over users yet. Reddit is in “cash out our chips” mode, so screwing over users for profit is the way to do it. In 2-3 years, the investors in Discord will start wanting to see revenue. That’s when they’ll start introducing user-hostile features.
Have to agree. Discord added a forum post view to popular communities which is sorta like Reddit, but not really. For really large communities, the noise from high traffic channels is tough to filter out.
It’s been going downhill at an increasing pace lately.
Agree. It’s good for small communities that want to have an ongoing conversation but it’s horrible for large communities. No easy way to scan content, find info, or even engage in a conversation.

Oh, of course, you gotta tell people where communities went. I just find Discord a questionable alternative to Reddit.
