God I can't fucking stand Discord. We used to use Teamspeak, Skype, Mumble, Vent, whatever for voice chat and maybe some small-scale comms, but big communities were always on forums, in games, whatever. You'd have to go somewhere that can actually handle a big community to participate with your community. But now they've just jammed these giant communities into fuckin Skype 2 and it does not work

Strong agree. Discord is such shit, I hate it. It can't do what Teamspeak does, it can't do what a forum does, and you're not even allowed to fuss with the ui per their tos (betterdiscord is good)

I'm part of a discord that's mostly irl friends who use it to share memes, personal updates in their lives, hobbies, and sometimes game together. It's a great tool for that

Two advantages of Discord:

Discord is free
Discord hides your IP address
