It’s crazy to hear you’ve been booted for being inactive! It’s not like Discord has a limit on usercount (…do they?). I’ve know people who disappeared for a year+ only to return like normal. Life happens and it’s best to leave the door open for anyone to return someday.
I also don’t use other social media outside the fediverse. Public discords have always been a gamble. Mods can only do so much to filter out children/assholes. Private discords tend end up in a death spiral of inactivity in my experience. This one sounds like there’s a ton of people, so hopefully it continues to thrive!
Thanks for sharing! Definitely nice to find mature corners of the internet. I’m excited to check it out later!
Do you have a rough idea about the demographics? Most places I find are still 90% men. Not saying anything is inherity wrong with that, but the vibes are different. It’s easy to feel “other’d” if you’re not “one of the bros.” I wish more places had an even split with women/nonbinary folks.
