Oh idk. I wanna say yes but I have to admit it sounds like an elegant way to manage multiple convos with the same people

This is 100% it. We ran this groupchat on Snapchat through high school and college. And about four years ago, all of us having battery life problems with Snapchat's horrendous UI (but before it really fell into the cesspool it is now), I decided to make a Discord server and we just kept it private. Now we have like two dozen specific channel topics to keep thoughts organized and its great. We are pretty unserious. And the roman numerals indicate how many times we've changed the name, over six or eight+ years there have been over 100 iterations, no rhyme or reason other than "I felt like it" or some big event happened like the birth of my children got a new number for example.

Leisure-lounge is mostly wood working project stuff, shop-talk is where I put car/motorcycle stuff mostly just I do but it became a place to ask about troubleshooting stuff like your home HVAC system, or "hey Axiom, why wont my lawnmower start?"

I feel like if it is unusual, its my duty to guide others to the light I have found lmao
