Ah thank you. Yes, I have never used Discord and don’t know its capacities. I definitely should educate myself :)

But the kid is now in senior year of high school so in worst case I did protect them for as long as I could. I won’t have much control from next year anyway..

Fair, I use it all the time, there's probably millions of different communities on it, think of reddit but with the capacity to share files, images, voice chat, video call, screenshare and so on. Now remember how insane reddit can get without all of that.

Just wanted to post this in case someone else has no idea and they let their kids on that platform. Chances are high most people on Discord are fine, but bad can be found anywhere online.
