I don’t think that is truly the case as it isn’t just the Discord alone, but other features in play.

If you running multiple tabs, it will slow down the loading speed.

Using internet also mean having a different and varied speed since you using wifi in your home or anywhere else unless you have cellular data on your mobile devices then that is a different story.

In any case, I will remain neutral to this claim.
