One of these directories predates the App Router. It shows — in both good ways and dated ones.
Discords.com — formerly Discord.me — is one of the oldest server directories still running, and it has the reviews and long history to show for it. It's also, by most accounts, one of the least actively redesigned: the core experience has changed relatively little in years.
Guilds.me is a newer, actively developed platform built on a modern stack from the ground up — which shows up less in any one flashy feature and more in the everyday details: how fast search feels, how the site looks on a phone, and how often new capability actually ships.

Longevity counts for something. A directory that's been indexed and linked to for years carries an established presence that a newer site has to earn over time — and its review system means it isn't purely bump/vote-based the way some older competitors are.
Guilds.me is built on the current generation of web tooling, which mostly shows up in things you feel rather than a single headline feature: search that returns results instantly and tolerates typos, pages that load fast on mobile, and a product that ships new capability — like AI-assisted descriptions and a referral program — on an ongoing basis rather than staying static.
Listing is free and takes a couple of minutes. Add your server to Guilds.me.
