That's a complaint I keep hearing. But the reason I switched to discord in the first place was because I loved the interface.
Both in terms of usability and aesthetics.
Makes me wonder why there is such a gap in how people rate their interface.
I'm pretty happy with the interface, with a couple exceptions:
1) I'd like to be able to collapse, or reposition, the right panel (the one with the users in it).
2) I'd like to be able to have multiple channels open at once. This one is probably my biggest complaint. It's frustrating having to frequently click back and forth between different channels in a server.
I'm sure I could find more things to complain about if those were resolved, but those two changes would make me content with the UI.
Give me some other themes too, I suppose. Maybe a really dark one.
I initially found discord UI a little confusing, not sure why. I use it all the time for work, and the layout is essentially the same as slacks. Admining servers is much nicer with discord.
Slack learned us to join and leave channels on purpose. This is something I totally miss with discord. There is always EVERYTHING at once hammering at me. For me a definitely not work friendly environment because it builds on distractions.
I guess it depends on your setup, but for me, based on your role, you're automatically part of all the channels that are relevant to you. You can mute channels if they become distracting and aren't relevant. I find this way better, as when we get new people they are instantly part of everything they will care about. When we had slack, I found I had to force join people to channels because they wouldn't know to go particular channels.
There's an interesting assumption being made here, that kids should do chores. I only started doing chores when I started living alone at 17 years old. Would have done chores improved me or my life in any way? The way I see it, there are far more interesting and educative ways to use a kids young years, when their brain is the most plastic. I was never forced, or barely even asked to help with chores, I was actually pretty curious about them. Although I never did chores with any regularity, I learned how to cook, bake and clean just out of curiosity.
Interesting observation. I think it is important to highlight things that are taken for granted. There are seems to be an assumption that there is "the right way" to raise kids and that it should be constant from generation to generation. I'm not so sure that's the case...
