    You cannot setup servers on Discord.

      While that is true, that’s also not what people mean when they say ‘servers’ in this context. No of course they’re not actual servers, but that’s what they’re called and I don’t think anyone is under the impression they’re actually servers

          Internally they are called guilds, but “publicly” they’re called servers. When you interact with the API you use guilds, but the Discord client itself doesn’t use that term - it only uses “Server” as far as I can see.

          Server sounds better. Guilds sound dumb.
