       @esm@wetdry.world the com sci profs at my uni who use discord for their classes insist on calling it a "discord group" and honestly that should really be what it is

       @esm so did many videogames in the past where you could crate a "server" which was basically just a hosted room by the developer.It isn't that wrong to assume that a discord guild could be a individually hosted instance by discord tbh.

       @esm also kinda ruined various communities before by taking away potential users, plus people seem to have a bad habit of hosting information for projects or whatever on a discord channel, like why do you need a glorified chat room with 18 channels for such things

       @esm @bronze @dushman @f_o_u_r_t_y @esm @fence only one merit came out of it: not using it just means that you're less likely to run into faggots than if you'd be using it, that being said with all the bbc cobson edits, discord trannies are not above trying to poison other people's wells

       @fence @esm Video games mostly had actual different servers though, they would just sometimes lie and call a cluster of servers a "server" but that error isn't unique to video games.

       @esm conspiracy theory that they call them “servers” to make them seem more independent than they really are

       @lanodan @fence @esm yeah calling it a server when it's just a lobby is newspeak. They used to be genuinely separate servers that either communicated with an IdP or had independently issued registration codes.

       @icedquinn @esm @fence I mean if you take say "WoW EU server" it's definitely a cluster with different authentications points.But I've seen it being used like this before Warcraft existed because it's probably easier for most to treat a cluster (or loadbalancer + servers) as a single "server" or heck a "supercomputer".See pretty much anything that talks about the DNS root for example, it's not just 13 servers.(And then you could also pedantically wonder if a workstation should be called differently as it's also a bunch of different computers in a trenchcoat)The difference on discord side of things is that even with taking server as a trenchcoat of machines, or an endpoint, it's still entirely incorrect.And it's also incorrect if you would take multiple services hosted on the same server(s), like what you typically have for managed hosting of small service.

       @esm Well, the WWW ruined the word "server" for previous generation.Ask anyone older than 80; "It is a person who brings the food to the table."
