Discord is a free text and voice chatting platform available on web browsers and as standalone apps for desktop and mobile. One of its key features is "servers," which are groups of channels focused on specific topics. For instance, Test Wiki has a dedicated server for wiki discussions, and it can be joined by following this link. Test Wiki's Discord was founded by X on June 19th, 2023. During the summer of that same year, ownership changed hands to Drummingman. An account is necessary to join, so read and understand Discord's terms of service before joining.
Channels
These are the channels of Test Wiki. When a user joins the server, the only channel available will be #verify, where they connect their Test Wiki account to their Discord one. When they complete the verification process, all the other channels will replace the verify channel.
