This is just each patch note for Discord. It’s so hard to move people off it though, ughhhh

Yeah i haven’t convinced a single person off of it. They complain anything else is too hard.

I miss techy people from the early 2000s that didnt bitch about setting up voice servers.

Discord unfortunately “just works”. It’s simple for people to add someone, type to them, call them voice or video, stream their screen. I don’t think anything else does this as well as Discord, so it’s borderline impossible to convince anyone who isn’t a nerd to try some new option. Discord need to do a major fuckup to start an exodus.

If Teamspeak didn’t sit on it’s ass for a decade, we all would probably still be using that.
