One of Reddit’s biggest communities is suggesting users move to Discord r/malefashionadvice, the biggest Reddit community still inaccessible in protest of Reddit’s new API pricing, is encouraging its users to congregate on Discord and view guides on Substack.

that you belong to

This is the issue. You need to log in, and join the server in order to access this information. Idk if it is still true, but there was a limit to the number of people who could join these communities. Which further complicates access to this information.

Yeah, somehow people got the idea I was saying this was good or comparable to the Web. It definitely isn't. Saying that there is no search is wrong, though.

Fair. However, at least to me, the way you worded it seemed to be missing the point of the person you replied to. Yes, you can search a discord server, but they aren't able to be indexed by search engines in the way that forums can which is what I believe was the point he was trying to get across.
