Comment on Discord going public. Plz help a future refugee.

Not entirely related, but why do so many people use Discord? What’s the appeal? I only ever used it as a replacement vor teamspeak or ventrilo. And I honestly hate most online games.

I’ve been using it for several years. I have a small server I use with my IRL friends and it works great.

Near 100% availabily

Nice sound quality

Supports multiple servers for your multiple interests

UI is amazing

Works fine on every platform

Screen sharing / streaming is easy

Cool to see what your friends are playing

Free plan is more than enough, you can pay for cosmetics or higher stream quality.

  The UI is actually kinda ass, but we all got used to it.
  
  Me and my friends moved to matrix, but we still use discord for streaming.

    Compared to the software we were using before, such Skype, TeamSpeak, Ventrilo and Mumble… The UI is amazing.
