Topic: Discord Stealer
Same reason mail servers are a massive target, it's for sending out spam. People are more likely to click suspicious links if they're coming from a friend.

Ah I forgot about Discord spam! I did used to get _a lot_ of that. Particularly surrounding crypto prpjects

Yeah, I've gotten my fair share of that. Though now it's more common for me to get fans.ly links and the like.

I'm glad Ive avoided that somehow, it stopped after the crypto spam stopped a year ago. Mostly after leaving a couple bigger servers.

Haven't got a single spam in all these years I'm using it - guess it all depends on the servers you're on
