person backing up his car exploitable with the following four panels:
- person looking ahead. the text below him says, "wow a cool software. let's check out the community"
- screenshot with the text
Community
The main place where the community gathers is our Discord server. Feel free to join there to ask questions, help out others, share cool things you created with Typst, or just to chat. - hand on gear shift zoomed in, switching to reverse
- person looking behind with the text "nevermind".
Some speculation on my part:
Despite what @AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml says, 3 (or variations on it) has become more common across some larger/more active Discord servers simply because communities understandably don't want to deal with drop-in trolls or raids, meaning some of them go so far as to temporarily limit or add small hurdles for people even with accounts.
You can of course still find many Discord servers that don't, which is among the reasons it remains so popular, but it's not as sure of a thing as it was in the past.
It's actually a misunderstanding of what I was saying. Lemmy already has this functionality. I use my normal account to ask a question in a community I'm not normally apart of. In the forum days I'd need to make an account for e.g. a power tool forum if I had a question.
Discord is the same. I use my normal account to join a server, ask a question, then leave after getting the answer. No temporary account needed.
I must've been more tired than I realized and didn't catch that properly, sorry about that! I was also more focused on the other person's question and taking it more literally as in the pseudo-guest feature of Discord, which enables you to pop in and ask without a full account.
Nah you're good. No worries. I actually didn't know that pseudo guest even existed
I see. Then I guess lemmy's current approach is reasonable. I do recall most discord servers does have e.g. some period until being able to post something.
