You can mute servers or chat channels inside servers. People like it because it is nice looking, has all their favourite emojis and gif memes. And decent voice chat.
I have them muted, but it always feels overwhelming for me to catch up with servers I try to follow. The information is either not structured at all, or too structured/scattered that you won't find anything useful anymore. I myself indeed use it for voice when playing some games, but it is in no way a replacement for a chatroom or forum, it is in my opinion too chaotic for that.
It's also one of the better instant messaging applications, and it's great for community interactions.
