It's not about features...it's about ease of use.

Its absolutely about both features and ease of use. If your program doesn't do what people want from it, then good luck.

Its also irrelevant to talk about considering I have used IRC and highly doubt that people are going to consider it easier to use than discord.

Yeah I'm giving the ease-of-use points to Discord.

I'd agree that both are big, sure...but ICQ and AIM didn't have attachments or GIFs or screensharing, They barely had text formatting. Yet they were still bigger than the semi-decentralized (but at least standards-based) IRC. The features weren't the big lure, it was the ease of use.
