Artificial Intelligence and Data Science Discord Server to Connect in 2021
A brief introduction of discord, if you haven’t heard about it, probably you are not a gamer, because Discord’s target market is for gamer and streamer. Discord is like Slack — A communication platform | messaging service that allows you to communicate with other people. But, Slack is usually used for work and business, while Discord is for gamers and also casual communities.
My friends and I created a discord server because there are a lot of communities in Indonesia who use Telegram as the base of communication, and we found that Telegram is not so scalable and the features are not that much. We started to explore other platforms including Slack and Discord. We didn’t consider Slack because I have experienced a community who utilize Slack for communication but it is not working, like the Slack is not so crowded. So then we decided to use Discord.
There are several activities in our discord
