You can dot he exact same things with discord. In fact, I have seen people do the exact same thing in discord. And everyone who uses discord is at least willing to talk to you, and the majority of the regulars are all the old chat users anyway. So not only does it make chat redundant, you can also do the exact same things on discord as you can on chat - introduce yourself, say hi, and that you're new.
