The main server I'm on is for after hours gaming with coworkers at a company I contract with. I can certainly find my way to a room and chat. But I can't use my actual name, though requested to do so, because it's too common (names don't have to be unique in discord, for some reason there can only be so many of each. Silly limitation.). And I'm not categorized in the same way as my coworkers in the user list. And then some rooms seem to be for text and others for watching one person broadcast video. The experience is just kind of all around disjointed feeling. Perhaps curation and community style has a lot to do with that though.

It certainly sound like a server that could be managed a little better.
