We've got a lot of crossover on The Free Speech Forum and the Discord so we figured it would be a good idea to have a dedicated thread to the Discord since there can be a bit of a learning curve when it comes to the user interface, and general usability.
I think we all realized pretty early on that discord isn't going to be a replacement for the message board, but it could serve as a board enhancement. Live events such as sports - breaking news -weather, and sharing pictures of your husbands and side meats, are right within The Boards wheelhouse. Can't forget about our robust financial/stonks/crypto community led by @tendies and assisted by some knowledgeable users, and chat bots with live stock market charts on command.
Here is a working invite to the server in case you haven't already joined. Feel free to share this around with anyone and everyone as it's an open invite. Anyone who can't handle what The Board brings to the table, will be delittled until leaving the server or a backflip off a nearby overpass.

Discord Formatting Tricks

Strikethrough: Place two tilde (~) symbols in front of and behind what you want striken like that like this
Underline: Place two underscores in front of and behind what you want underlined like this

Hints to make your Discord experience less cluttered and more like a message bored
The left side menu (swipe right on phone) has over 50 channels currently grouped into 8 channel categories. This can be quite daunting. On the left side of each of the 8 channel categories is a directional arrow. If you click on it in the down position, it will change to facing right. This will collapse all the read channels in that header so that only unread channels are exposed. Each new post in a channel will now pop up in that category so you can easily see what's new quickly, plus make scrolling less tedious.
If you are logging on for the first time in awhile, Discord will remember where you left off in each category by indicating that with a red line and New Messages in the middle of it on phone, and a red line with New on the right hand side on PC. You'll also see the number of new messages in a blue box at the top of your screen.
Feel free to chime in below with any questions.
