Sarcasm? Serious question. I used Discord exactly once, many years ago, and it appeared to be mostly children playing video games. I hear things have changed, but it’s hard to imagine a more tech savvy group than HN.

I'd assume kids are better at navigating modern dark patterns, having grown up with them.

I spend a lot of time on Discord, write bots, etc. Maybe it’s just the communities I hang out in, but I’ve seldom seen a less tech-savvy user base.
