It's gucci, if only it was open source.

agree, it's really nice to use as a voip compared to other alternatives

Discord is the shit. Switched from Skype to this and have not experienced one problem with it.

Not as shit as Skype and works great for mobile, too.

Probably the best communication software right now, unless you need webcam or something.

Mumble is superior in literally every way

Shilling is real. Is Discord new uBlock?
>>
It's great. Add a couple of more features, and it'll be perfect. Switched from Skype, and got about 10+ friends to do so as well.

It's interesting, but raises concerns and has major red flags for me.

It's fully free, but closed source. They provide you with free to use software, and even give their bandwidth for free, without asking for anything, no advertisement, nothing.

When something like this happens, I can't help but think that I'm not just using a product, I am the product.

>inb4 tinfoil
It's not like it's the first time anything like this would've happened or anything.
>>
no point in using it when I already use mumble and it's painless to manage mumble
>>
Convinced a few of my friends to switch from skype, the rest that didnt move because "they dont trust it" over skype i just stopped talking to.

I used that discord_bot node js nonsense and gave it some fun commands for people to fuck around with, rss feeds, etc.

Its pretty cool, i see alot of potential.

>>53303947
Yes, but uBlock is actually good, discord is very meh.

Nice code of conduct, faggot

This shitty software is cancer and is for SJWs
>>
Discord works awesome, but sometimes a mic will cut out in large group chats, or if someone micspams.
>>
>>53302103
it's shit.
>>
Good software of you don't care about having your data mined
>>
How the hell are people shilling this when mumble (and similar open source solutions) are available and take 5 minutes to set up

Only because so I don't have to fiddle with drivers and configuration for this PoS laptop a lot. Drivers just seem to break at random.

But the client uses ANSI coloring, and printf()s a lot so it pretty much works everywhere.

Normies use Skype
The rest use steam+TS3
LE GAYMEN GENERATION use discord

This is a shill thread desu senpai
>>
>>53304854
I dropped Skype a long time ago for Mumble, but Discord is legitimately good. I can understand people making threads about it.
>>
>>53304854
And yet Skype devs fixed the IP leak just because of gaymers.

Do you know how online businesses work? You put out a good product, establish a large faithful userbase, and then run it into the ground with ads and other shit while people stick with it because "well, I've always used it"
>>
>>53302103
Best voice chat by far.
>>
>>53304602
no need for a server
proper text messaging with auto-embedded images and youtube videos all the same client

>>53302103
Ponyfaggot crap
>>
>>53307536
I can see it as a short term solution. I use discord (before setting up my own personal mumble server) to chat and stuff, but I talk a lot over VoIP so it just made sense to invest a little time into.
No need for your own server also means no control
>>
TS3 successor.
>>
it's cancer
>>
I don't like it, it's built on shitty code in a shitty language. My Freesync monitor thinks it's actually a game and because Discord updates so slowly the monitor actually starts flickering at like 30Hz.
>>
absolute fucking garbage, not only built on literally web browser, but it just doesn't work right
>>
>>53302103
No encryption available
stick to Mumble.
>>
Shilled to death on Twitch. Meme status attained. I give it 6 months before all logins are leaked. Screen shot this.

>Not enjoying the grate China bot net.

Discord is owned by the Chinese and "does not sell user data to 3th partys" only to 1st partys. Not the NSA.
.
>>
>>53309811
How is it owned by the Chinese? I see they are basically built around an older company that used to make games, or something like that. And they are just a startup which raised capital from a number of investors. There's no mention that they are owned by the Chinese.
