Fuck Discord. It stole entire communities from us. It is the opposite of privacy. And, subjectively, their client applications are just a horrible mess.
Also it used to be fast, but got bloated and lost its greatest advantage. They abandoned every design choice that made them popular in the first place.
To your point, though, the learning process ideally ought to be seamless and linear; each new thing you can do with the application should be mostly obvious given what you already know about the UI, not force you to learn everything from scratch or do work to learn it (unless you’re into that kind of thing). I don’t think Discord is the worst offender of this rule, but they could make it better.
I do agree with this, however I also have to say being someone who’s been on the canary branch and has the newest version of the new UI once you learn it it’s so much better mobile wise doing literally anything it just makes sense and goes with the mobile flow a lot better then the old ui was, plus it has a side bar which is really nice… The beginning new ui with the guildbar at the bottom was atrocious though, so glad they scrapped that model.

My discord client (the official app on both PC and android) are blazing fast.

What do you mean? Having three seperate settings buttons with options divvyed between them makes perfect sense
Counterpoint: vim is very well liked for it’s UI, but there’s a very steep learning curve.

I’m still stuck in vim, please send help.

Sorry how did it steal communities? If communities migrated to Discord, the communities saw value in using it.
