We explore when the silting-discreteness is inherited. As a result, one obtains that taking idempotent truncations and homological epimorphisms of algebras transmit the silting-discreteness. We also study classification of silting-discrete simply-connected tensor algebras and silting-indiscrete self-injective Nakayama algebras. This paper contains two appendices; one states that every derived-discrete algebra is silting-discrete, and the other is about triangulated categories whose silting objects are tilting.
