I mean, I'm not particularly looking for off-season, and general exchange meta is fine. It's just that even during yuletide season the only places I can reliably find those discussions are anon memes, since the discord at any given moment is more likely to be about what people had for dinner or whatever, even, like, the day after assignments, and it seems to be the only other place anyone suggests.

AYRT

The exchange channels are pretty much always on topic because the mod makes people move it to general chat otherwise. I just clicked on 5 random exchanges and all of them were relevant, as is the general exchange chat. Maybe you last checked on a slow period but now seems fine.

It might be the other way around - maybe during exchange season the discords fill up with people and the usual more focused chat in the general channels gets drowned out, and they're more on topic the rest of the year.

But it's not that the exchange channels themselves were off-topic, it's that they moved slower than coal even during busy periods and the only channels that were constantly active were the off-topic ones. (And it's a recurring issue in MANY discords that as soon as a good, on-topic discussion starts in the general chat channel, someone decides it needs to move to a different channel, and nobody moves with it so it dies there.)

I like EAD way better the yulechat because I find the people there a whole lot less annoying, on the whole. I can't tell which one you're talking about, though.
