    Lol, and that is such a mild form of criticism… To nuke their whole Discord over it. On the other hand, I guess nothing of value was lost

      The Discord wasn’t official, it was just endorsed. This is the work of a fanboy

        Is it not? They sure seem to promote it as such.

          It wasn’t created by them, it existed already for quite a few years. They could have entered the scene later, making it official that way.

            I’m confused then because it seems like no matter what it is the official microsoft discord.
