People contact you on discord to ask for upvotes? That is quite crass.
When someone asks me for funds on Hive, unless I know them quite well, I stop following them altogether. I'm on discord very little (I have enough to do!), and haven't had the pleasure of anyone I don't know well asking me for favors there. In fact, I can go for months before anyone private messages me on discord. But I do have a couple lovely relationships that are conducted mostly there. Of course, I met them all here first. Hive has been quite the springboard for me, in many respects, especailly international.
Crass is a good way to put it. There are also those who want their project supported or something too - but still, do it on chain first. If needing a project supported, the more eyes the better, right?
Discord is good for this. Though, I like the smaller groups, rather than those ones filled with a lot of randoms that degrade into bitching and complaining.
Awesome, right?
