Problem is people are fucking lazy and will not move to another platform. I want teamspeak and vent back but people nowadays won’t even try. So we are forced to keep using it. People have no balls to stand up to corpos just to learn something new. It’s infuriating.

Another issue is console integration. I’ve got friends I play with using cross-play (PC-PS5), but the only service we can both use is Discord unless they use multiple devices.

I would love to use Mumble, Matrix or Revolt but it’s the same hurdle.

You can use matrix and still keep in touch with the lazy people. Having a place for people to go when they eventually get fed up will help a ton.

    It should be noted that these only support messaging (including media attachments) but not voice/video calls. I’ve been using bridging for a few years now though.

12 years ago Skype and team speak were the go to for voice chat for gaming. Once someone comes up with a less shitty platform, everyone will start to migrate again.

Uh… You stand up to corpos. Just leave. Nobody is forcing you to use it.

  That’s well and good for us, but then we are just the isolated few who do it compared to all our friends that stay with discord because they’re comfortable on it.

    Gotta take a stand. There have been a few things where I gotta tell friends that I can’t do this. If they won’t change… Meh. Gotta have principles.
