Reddit was great... until it wasn't.
Building communities in somebody else's backyard is problematic because if your community gets popular, you're stuck there. History has shown us that for-profit social sites/apps that grow large always turn to crap when it's time for them to actually start making a significant profit. I haven't seen any reason to think that Discord has figured out a way to prevent that. Have you?
Something similar is even a risk with Lemmy because there isn't really a way to migrate a community to another server if the admins of the one you pick change the policies in a way you aren't OK with, or simply shut down the server.
