Description
So I am in 4 ASF Discord Servers and there are probably more.
Discord is much more advanced and even more social than Slack.
https://discord.com
The ASF promotes Slack a lot. So even some of the current PMC members and Committers don't know about the ASF Discord Servers.
I much prefer Discord there are desktop and mobile apps and you can also use Discord in your browser.
Microsoft wanted to buy Discord for about 10 billion a few years ago.
So I have a quick list here of the ASF Servers I am in:
| Apache Answer | https://discord.com/invite/a6PZZbfnFx | https://answer.apache.org | Over 350+ members |
| Apache HertzBeat | https://discord.com/invite/Fb6M73htGr | https://hertzbeat.apache.org | 210+ members
| Apache OpenDAL | https://discord.com/invite/XQy8yGR2dg | https://opendal.apache.org | Over 350+ members |
| Apache Sedona | https://discord.gg/9A3k5dEBsY | https://sedona.apache.org | About 590 members |
Lots of communities on there for example there is an official Python Discord with over 400k members. So there is also a "TVM Community" for https://tvm.apache.org not official
- https://discord.com/invite/python
A lot have never used Discord and most don't like change in life but I encourage people to try Discord. Promoting Discord more is another way we can grow the ASF community faster and reach more people.
Lastly if you know of any other ASF projects that are using Discord please post the websites and or Discord links.
So I am a Discord Server Owner and admin on 5+ Servers so if you want to setup a new main ASF Discord for all I am willing to help run it.
Thanks !

Research direction
Start by locating the ASF website content that currently promotes Slack and identify where a Discord section would belong. Review the proposed server links and confirm which communities should be included before making the change. Done means the website has an agreed, accurate Discord listing with working links.
