I think that Discord is the web site that was associated with guy accused of leaking DoD security documents. …and that is supposed to be normal for young boys?
The platform is aptly named.
Discord is an app. It’s basically a glorified chat platform. They are most often used by gamers to collaborate, and a “server” that is started by just about anyone is basically just a bunch of categorically separated chatrooms. It supports media sharing and conferencing too, if I am not mistaken. But a server is basically private, unless you get an invite.
That’s why the article brought up how this event was also in twitter, and thus less private. People should have been able to see what was going on in twitter. Why did no one notice, or do anything, is I think the point of the article.
Discord is roughly similar to FR, actually. Just a chat board. I use it for online game discussions and organization as well.
Discord isn’t a website, it’s an app originally designed for voice communication in games that didn’t include voice communication. As the app has expanded it offered forum like text as well. Discord is supposed to be normal for young boys that like playing computer games. Predators go where the kids are.
It’s not a website. It’s an app to create chat rooms, mainly for gamers who are playing games together and want a private place to hangout. Yes, it’s quite normal for young boys to use that app. It’s not so normal for people to post confidential documents there.

And the police will not help
Discord is primarily used for gaming chats, but it’s about as user friendly as Reddit.
On Discord you make a channel where you can talk together for gaming, grouping, raiding.
A talking IRC.
Discord is a voice over IP program with text messages forum and private message function.
It took the voice chat from Teamspeak and added other functions.
Now gas video chat or screen sharing functions.
And if you hurt the feelings of a furry the discord owners ban you.
