If you just joined a new Discord server and immediatelyoverwhelmed by the very fast-paced speeches, a new feature should make this process a little less overwhelming. For the most nostalgic, Discord has announced the distribution of a new kind of “forum” type channel. lets you stay up to date with a server’s conversations without getting stuck in the chat. This feature comes just hours after the introduction of Discord voice chat on Xbox.
In the official press release, Discord said, “ Forum channels allow focused conversations to grow without monopolizing a channel. There is no longer a need to watch an interesting discussion get strangled, kidnapped, or abandoned just because it goes unanswered for several hours. Every conversation has more space on Discord than ever before “.
Therefore, in the left navigation bar, you will find a list of larger, box-shaped posts with bold titles written by users. By clicking on it you will get everything you would expect from an old-fashioned forum: comments displayed in chronological order alongside the author’s message.
The feature is currently rolling out and Available on Discord servers with the community flag enabled in the server settings.
