Discord brought back a lot of "open web" feelings for me tbh. It's really like the AOL/IRC experience. Small communities of like minded people really hits the sweet spot.
The intimate and memorable communities and experiences are out there still, you just have to go looking for them. Isn't that in the spirit of the old web, anyway?
I see what you mean, but I cannot trust a closed platform. For instance : before Discord there was Skype... until Microsoft bought it and ran it into the ground.
