It depends very much on the discord. I'm in several discords which are excellent communities. They're really good places to hang out, get to know people interested in the same hobby, build a subculture etc.

I haven't really tried one as a QA or knowledge sharing site, perhaps they're much less good at that.

They can be excellent, but only in the moment.

The excellent communities I have been a part of can be searched. People can read it and learn. The Discord ones, unless they publish to a wiki or something, just don't exist.

Interesting point. The main one I'm part of started out as a wiki and is now both. The wiki is kind of the long term memory of the community, but it's so painful to have conversations there.
