Discord invite on ethereum.org fails with “Unable to accept invite”

[codebyankita]

Describe the bug

When I try to join the official Ethereum Discord from ethereum.org, the Discord invite modal immediately shows “Whoops… Unable to accept invite” and prevents me from joining.

To reproduce

1. Open: https://ethereum.org/en/community
2. Click the “Join Discord” / Discord invite button/link.
3. Discord opens an invite modal.
4. The modal immediately displays: "Whoops... Unable to accept invite" and the join flow is blocked.

Expected behavior

Clicking the Discord link should open a valid invite modal and allow me to accept the invite and join the server.
