i think they all have their own distinct feelings, though. discord can feel pretty overstimulating, and forums kind of give you a break from the constant noise. i guess i'd say discord kinda has the same energy as being in a room full of people, a relatively closed space, all talking to them or hanging out with them. forums kind of feel like... public spaces? they feel larger. kind of like to a nice downtown area or a public park. everything kind of remains kind of static unless someone changes it, and they feel really cozy and familiar as a result, i think. but they can still feel lively in their own way because you still get the evidence of things changing and growing slowly.

Those are several of the reasons I don't like using Discord; my personal space bubble is a little too wide for it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not antisocial, but I just don't feel comfortable with the room full of people vibe you're describing. It's too close, and also too fast paced for me, I just can't keep up with it and it overwhelms me. I'm just not an especially intimate person really, I like having a bit of space between myself and the outside world. I can't tell you why, but Discord just feels a little too constricting to me, a little too exclusive, and way too fast paced. I don't like exclusivity. I can see why it would be very cool to someone else, but that person really isn't me. I really did try to like it, though.

So I prefer forums. The public feeling of it is nice, and I can maintain a bit of a shell between myself and the forum while still being able to interact with it. There's no pressure to react in seconds to a conversation lest another take its place, no need to join yet another forum you're never gonna look at again just to download a game or something, and it's usually a lot easier to search for past conversations. Plus, you don't really see people spamming the link to their forums everywhere they go, at least not anymore. Maybe it was a thing back in the early 2000s, but...

I used to use Twitter, but it got to the point where every post I saw was either electoral politics that I don't really have any interest (or stake, in the case of European politics) in or just memes that weren't funny and everything there was just designed to be disposable, so I just stopped using it after my 6,666th post. Nowadays I only ever see it when someone specifically links a post, and I'm happier for it. I still want to keep an online journal, and I kinda set up my neocities page for it, but I'm just an incredibly lazy person and don't want to manually fill in all the HTML just to say something like 'today was terrible, wish I had some more HRT, I should probably give that email a proper reply. Bye now!' every single post.

Twitter was mostly just an online journal for me, but it wasn't a particularly decent one, so I ended up moving over to Mastodon. It functions just fine and 500 characters is way better than 280, but the instance I picked while seemingly decent at the time eventually degraded to the point half the people there are robots reposting the same few prepackaged lines or ridiculous memes over and over. It somehow still is less annoying than Twitter, which is an accomplishment.

This post might be incomprehensible nonsense, it is way, way later than I should be up (2:48 am), and I really need to be sleeping, since for some reason I wake up at about 8:30 no matter when I go to bed. Sorry if it is.

i don't like discord very much, although i sort of use it out of necessity i guess. i like it for streaming films and building communities. but 90% of my chatting happens in telegram actually - or whatsapp, which tbh i don't like that much.

i also use instagram (mostly to share photography work or cryptic videos), twitter (to share jokes or pics i like amusing), and tumblr (to share music and pics i find appealing).

but as far as journaling goes i really just use a very deliberately formatted word document for that. all things considered, i use social media itself considerably less now than i have any time in the past ten years.

i do like forums for their topic-oriented nature (as opposed to personality-oriented; personalities are secondary here, in theory) but i only intermittently use them, and it's mostly this one that i use.

irc feels like going to the old hangout and catching up with old buddies

Turns out, it's really awkward for me to see someone I know from forums on a discord server, enough to not contact them on discord if I can avoid it. I don't know why I'm like this, I just am.

My solution to keeping up with a bunch of slower communities has been a combination of RSS and putting things on a custom new tab page. I'm new to this place, so most of the time when I open it up it's because I see its entry at the top of my "Social Spaces" category on every new tab.

Yep. You just have to make it a priority to go. But even if you don't, it's completely asynchronous so it's not that big of a deal if you only check up once every couple weeks.

No pressure. Use the forum how you like.

My preferences run in the order given in the topic, unless the software used for a given forum seems user-hostile, in which case Discord will take precedence over that forum.

I also use it! But not for forums, rather for YouTube subscriptions and Twitch streams. It's really useful actually, and for the most part, much more reliable than YouTube itself.

Forums all the way! Discord is nice and all, but there are so many things that discord locks behind a paywall (Nitro) that forums just straight up support right out the box!

Also, discord servers are property of discord, and all users are subject to discord's terms of service, but when a forum is self-hosted, the owner pretty much gets to make the rules!

Can't think of anything else to put here, so...

For me, forums have the advantage of feeling more like a "place". Lots of opportunity for discussion, and I appreciate a pace that is easier to keep up with than a busy Discord group full of hundreds and hundreds of instant messages a day.

I also especially enjoy finding a home in a forum thread that lasts a long time, with regulars who pop in and out, creating a social, cosy place. In my younger years I used Gaia Online exclusively for the forums, and for one thread in particular that was a wonderful, supportive place. I made many friends that I still keep in close contact with today!

I also love how individual threads end up having their own culture and history, let alone the categories or forum as a whole. Things like the One True Thread on the xkcd forums are just so lovely.

It's also healthy to simply write more long-form text in general. I feel like my ability to write articles, or technical text in general, has diminished over the years and the provenance of short-form, instant chat platforms surely has something to do with it. I have actually realized earlier that I need to re-learn to write prose if I don't want to have a bad time with my master's thesis. I'm thinking about the means to practice. I've attempted weekly blog posts in the past without much success...

Forums are much, much better for archival retrieval, but Discord is much better for spontaneous discussion and discovery.

Social Media isn't great for either.

I have serious concerns about Discord's longevity, however. We've all got bad memories of many many other IM clients dying out suddenly.

i was looking at discord's built in server list and it baffled me to see servers with like 800,000 people in it. like even moderation aside, just. it's like if all of twitter was just in one scrolling feed, but on a much smaller scale, and it's all people complaining about the game they're playing being dead. lol

I think it's a good thing to have shittier parts of the internet, so nicer communities can exist in contrast

I wouldn't say my concerns about discord disappearing are serious, but I've made no secret that I believe the clock is ticking. As with all other IM ecosystems, it's only a matter of time.

Hopefully something open replaces it, like Matrix or some modern form of XMPP.

I mean I use just about all of them. Hell, the main I'm on I've got more than your lead does (and I technically have 14K posts on the 'banned' account as it stands).

As for longevity of any of them...eh. I've been using the Internet for such things since the advent of AIM back before the turn of the century. Things will come and go as they always do. I still get a hold of people that I thought I lost contact with in other media platforms or in real life as time goes on so it really doesn't bother me all that much.

remember when discord added threads? then nobody used them. that was very interesting of them. i think that it was a good idea, but unfortunately, they executed it really badly, since:

1. they're just channels that anyone can create
2. they're hard to find in the interface and get pushed aside
3. they archive themselves by default

so, what of this old feature then?



apparently discord's trying to add a feature that makes it slightly more forum-like, albeit still linear. to me it seems to just be a channel that is dedicated to threads and threads only. i think this is a good idea since then it makes threads not impossible to find (tucked into the corner with all the other unlabeled buttons, or drowned away in a sea of messages after the thread was created)

i think if a community insists on having a discord server rather than an ol forum like this one, this implementation might actually facilitate better linear, on-topic discussion. if we think of threads as "topics" (as some forum systems call them), then a server can have a "forum" (a channel) that only allows the creation of threads that don't get flooded away by general discussion of that forum's specific topic

this prevents the dilemma that i've seen many times where a discord server will have dozens and dozens of channels for every conceivable subject, and instead have subjects be of similar weight (as "threads"/"topics" (proto-channels)) in a "subforum" (a channel dedicated to threads). so someone doesn't have to ask the admin "can we have a homestuck channel?" but it can instead exist as a thread in the entertainment forum

of course this still doesn't fix the looming issue of discord being a giant javascript hell dimension that's hard to archive, awful to search, impossible to search without joining (maybe they could add an option for server admins to enable search engine indexing?), and fast-paced since it's a chatroom. i think that if there is more leverage for topic-based discussion though, it can alleviate the fast-paced nature, allowing someone to type out a well-thought response without having to worry about someone posting a meme that changes the subject entirely

just some thoughts, i guess. i still think it sucks to have to join a discord server to find the answer to a question (search engine indexing? maybe?), or the one-way mirror of not joining a community's supplemental discord server

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
