i fucking hate discord

every time i use Ctrl+K to search for a thing the top results are always some user from a server i'm in but here's the thing i don't want to search for any user in a server let one ones i never have clicked into, ever.

just an immensely pathetic use of what is kind of an essential feature for how bloated discord servers are by nature i dont want to have to click through different servers to go to the channel im thinking of! that's why im searching! and if im searching for a user, it's probably because I KNOW THEM. suggesting someone i've literally never heard of before and pinning it to the top and automatically selecting that user is insane i don't understand how you ship a thing like this

I sympathize, and I also hate a lot of discord's recent changes, but fwiw if you type # in the search field it isolates your search to text channels and excludes things like usernames. I hope that's helpful? 😅

genuinely insane how the entire mythos of the tech industry is that surveilling every moment of people's lives grants them deep spiritual Insights into their Desires and Purchasing Habits, and then not a SINGLE piece of software can go "Hey this user takes the same three actions every time they open the app. Maybe we could speed that up for them"

i still love how if i ctrl-tab switch between the top two servers i have, for some inexplicable reason, it will jump to the first channel of the second one, a normally-hidden channel that i never read

i do not know why it does this and only this if i use ctrl-tab. ctrl-3 works fine. clicking works fine. just ctrl-tab
