It depends. More than one channel is not bad per se.Having multiple channels is a privilege, not a burden.
But multiple channels can quickly turn into a burden as soon as you have to follow something like half a dozen to keep an overview of what's going on. Way too much time, way too much fuss. Only few people take the pains to do that.
Therefore, practically, multiple channels fragment the community and their effect becomes more detrimental than beneficial IMHO. Instead of 'one good', you get a handful of 'not so good'. I'd rather follow the former than the latter.
As such, I won't be lured over to Discord even by people like JRV.
