Comment on Researchers Scrape 2 Billion Discord Messages and Publish Them Online
MBech@feddit.dk 2 months agoDiscord is genuinely a great tool for what I used to use Skype for. Talking to my friends, and sharing dumb memes with them in a groupchat format. Companies need to learn that using it as a forum, a Q&A service, a wiki or any other information sharing purpose, is simply fucking retarded.

We can’t say the F-word on Lemmy?
That’s retarded!

You can say whatever you want but people are going to judge you for it.
Most people here prefer to use inclusive language that doesn’t make anyone feel unwelcome.
People with actual mental deficiencies exist on Lemmy and it may or may not hurt them to use words like this.
If it hurts even one good person then it’s probably just worth increasing your vocabulary to avoid that.
Not too mention imo suggesting someone is actually “retarded” means they should be treated with understanding and patience. People who are deliberately ignorant don’t deserve that patience.
