What's everyone doing about Discord?
Quick question - is Discord okay for like a 12yo? My son wants to join a server for his Minecraft stuff and I'm trying to figure out if I'm being paranoid or if there are legit concerns. Can you actually monitor what he's doing on there or is it pretty private? Not trying to spy on him but want to know what I'm signing up for
Discord is fine for 12 with some guardrails. Server-level privacy is okay but Discord has a history of predators in gaming spaces. The real question: is it a small friend group server or a random huge gaming server?
Replying to the friend group thing - yeah this. Small Minecraft server with IRL friends is basically a group chat. That's fine. Jumping into huge public gaming servers at 12 is different.
