It is good as long as it is run by the people using it, with open software and good moderation.

It' not good in any shape and form, and moderation is dictatorship.

If you do not like the mods, you can go somewhere else. That is the joy of the 1rst amendment. Ahhhh, isnt freedom nice?

Uh, no. None of the discord moderators are properly vetted or trained to babysit teenagers all day.

Especially hormonal/suicidal teenagers in discord servers.

Enter IRC. You could run your own IRC if you do not like discord, and moderate it yourself.

So you’re telling me,

People should be allowed to run mental health servers. Where they are not vetted or trained. And anonymous.

While moderating a bunch of suicidal ideation kids who are also anonymous, where they have no actual capable ability to actually support?

And do all that for free?

I did not read the mental health part.

Even so, you could enlist the help of a mental health professional to help.
