A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What do you mean, how could your own server be "hosted by discord"?

Have you ever used discord? The name server isn’t prescriptive. It’s not your own server. It’s just your own chat rooms

No, not really.

Eh, you lost me there, what's that supposed to mean? How could my own server suddenly become not my own server if I started to use Discord?

Discord calls it a server but its really just a different term for a chat room. Discord does not allow you to host on your own infrastructure its all locked down and closed source.
