A short YouTube talk by Joe Fier about building communities primarily on X and Discord. The speaker emphasizes personal approachability—replying to mentions and answering Discord questions—and notes relying on team members to surface questions within a large (~15,000-member) Discord community. The piece focuses on practical, first-person community-engagement tactics rather than YouTube comment moderation.

So Discord and X are probably where I focus on community the most. If I'm being totally honest, I don't pay as much attention to the YouTube comments as I used to.
But most of the community building that I do is on X and inside of Discord. And the way I do it is I just try to make myself as approachable as possible. Like, if people like at me on Twitter or X, I pretty much reply to everybody. I'm reading the comments, I'm replying. Same with Discord. If somebody's asking me a question in Discord, I get in there, I'll answer the questions. I'm not reading the entire sort of feed that's going in discord. We've got 15,000 members in there now. So, like, the feed is just too hard for me to keep up with. But I do have team members that are like, hey, this person just asked a question. You should jump in and answer it real quick. And I will. And so I think the community element of it is really just me saying, like, hey, look, I'm a real dude. I'm here. Come ask me questions. Come talk to me. Like, let's interact.
