We’ve launced a public discord server at https://discord.gg/lemmyworld

The reason for why we choose discord is because it was easier to moderate and manage than other options. Besides we also had a discord-bot guru by the name of Rooki who created a neat bot that allowed us to connect/verify discord users to their Lemmy World account.

So if you are a moderator and you are looking for some extra hands to moderate your community, or if you need to contact anyone from the LW team, this is the most efficient way to do it!

Come have a look!

    Discord is a concerning choice as it’s liable to the same type of issue seen with Reddit. The users are not in control when it’s proprietary software: either they accept bad changes or leave.

    I can’t speak to how good the moderation tools are but time spent learning or building upon Discord-only tools is suboptimal. I hope free software platform can improve their tools.

      Yeah same. But as the “most” normies dont understand element. And others are not good enough ( Revolt ). Discord is reliable and we can share reliable news if a ddos or something else is happening
