There actually are businesses, schools and more using Discord for their communications. Some people also use it as their primary messaging app and that really shouldn't be the case. For anything nonsensitive, it's not that big a deal. I would still recommend checking out privacy respecting alternatives like the end-to-end encrypted client Element that uses the Matrix protocol
There are businesses that use DISCORD for professional communication?? I believe you but that seems ridiculous. There are so so so many issues when it comes to what’s recorded, document retention, security, privacy. Maybe you discuss a court case on Teams or Slack or…ha…discord apparently…they can subpoena that as record. The software companies use has to be compliant on all of these areas. Crazy.
We meet again :) And we even agree on this, too! Yeah, it's madness. I know that it's a stereo type that people don't read TOS, T&C and privacy policies but when you have a product like Discord that is free one should realize that something's not right.
