@lemmy.worldDropping in to echo this sentiment. I am interested in blocking the instance itself due to the communities it has. I don't want to block comments from the users on it though.
If you use discord for it's intended purpose there really isn't any issue. Choosing to imagine discord is something it isn't and then getting shocked about it later seems like a personal problem.
I myself use it for basic chat with some gaming friends and memes. It certainly isn't the place for sensitive materials.

Agree with the Synology recommendation for a simple starter. Though personally always recommend the 4 bay.
Think of it like email.
The email provider is the instance:
Google, Yahoo, outlook, etc
The community/user is your email address:
Android@gmail, Android@yahoo
Because they are different providers you can have the same name since it's the only one on that provider.
Learning to follow hashtags was a game changing moment for me on Mastodon. Went from not really using it at all to frequent user.
