I use discord because it's way more popular so it's easy to encourage my community members to join using that platform. I'm curious, how is Discourse?

Same here! A lot of young people use Discord so I feel like it's a good way to engage a younger community. If I'm looking to appeal to older people, I still utilize Facebook a lot.

So I use two different apps for two communities that I manage. I use Slack for a smaller one and HiveBrite for a bigger community
