Perhaps You Can Help Me Find a Good Discord

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

I know post VirtualEscapade, some of my circle were mentioning they'd found good Discord channels to slashtastic upon.

I've convinced my dusty handle to resume service, but recalling who was so informed has escaped me. Any cool places to hang about?

I don't think I've ever been in a Discord that was just...generically fannish. Discords in my experience are either:

• based on an existing friend group and grow slightly from there
• are started for a specific reason like a fandom or a fan event, and then they grow additional channels for discussing stuff other than the reason they were launched

So I've got several servers where I generically discuss fandom stuff, but they started because of Les Mis, or MDZS, or in one case fandom federation.

Yuletide discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/49NXABD

It grew out of the now-defunct IRC for the yuletide exchange, but it's a year-round fannish chat that has rooms for yuletide and a bunch of different exchanges.

Mostly, I'm in fandom discords for relatively small fandoms. I don't know if any of them are interesting to you, but here goes:

Lois McMaster Bujold discord: https://discord.gg/SxTVGwUn
The Goblin Emperor discord: https://discord.gg/vetKTs7E
The Murderbot Diaries: https://discord.gg/xp2GMNhG
