Okay, that was a bit of clickbait, but Alexis Ohanian (a Reddit founder - the one who left the Reddit board earlier this year and requested he be replaced by a black person) is a significant investor in Guilded.
Some people are led to believe that Guilded is a viable alternative to Discord, but it is not.
Alexis is the worst of the Reddit founders (which are Alexis, Steve, and also Aaron who 'committed suicide' in 2013, and now Steve pretends never existed)
Longtime Pede here who is running a movement/think-tank that got banned several times off Discord, gave up on Discord entirely. Can vouch that Guilded is the closest thing as of now in terms of interface/design to Discord.
PROS: It's still very low level and used only for gaming, not as popular meaning you'd be UNDER THE RADAR - there are only 13 employees running it - no third party audits scanning etc... so you can establish a hub there as we did for our own group.
CONS: Their TOS is pretty shit, but if you keep it Unpublished and restricted to only access people here - and have a good Mod team you can safely use it to your advantage.
By no means is it a permanent solution but it functions for what is required currently. Until something better crops up.
