Tell HN: Come join HN discord chat, get to know likeminded people, make friends

Hey, everyone! I love hanging out here on HN, so many awesome, smart, and creative people to talk to. But over the years, I haven't made a single personal connection, there's no one in this community that I know by name.

There aren't a lot of likeminded people where I live (and I have trouble making real life friends because of health and social anxiety reasons), but I think it would be pretty cool to get to know someone online.

I've been playing a lot of DnD (and doing some improv) over discord recently, and that really helped me to meet some awesome people, talking on discord really encourages people to get to know each other and make more personal connections.

I think it would be cool to have such community for HN users, a nice place to talk about startups, coding, tech, side projects, scifi, etc, make friends, share experience and advice, stuff like that. This works extremely well for DnD and Improv, it should probably work well for HN too.

If you're interested in this, I've just created a discord server:

Come join it, let's hang out!
