Discord doesn't really solve any problems in the text chat space any better than Slack, and introduces additional problems like its lack of ability to leave/join channels.

I use discord personally all the time and really wanted to use it for business but couldn't.

Some reasons:

* You are in all channels, all the time. * no threaded replies (most important) * the notifications system is weird * weak integration system (integrations cannot add widgets to chat)

Some more reasons that I forgot. But these ones most importantly.

Discord is no better than Slack.

While I haven't seen any legal threats, they tend to threaten end users with bans (due to breach of ToS) for using third party clients, client modifications (like BetterDiscord), and "self-bots".

Little late with the reply and it's probably disappointing too. I don't use discord so I don't have any opinions about what their product or future is
