Why have other VoIP gaming services failed like Teamspeak, and Mumble?
get on vent to not get bent
Normalfags are unironically too damn stupid for mumble. I used to host a mumble server and we had to switch over to discord because my friend's co-workers apparently couldn't navigate the basic fucking UI
>>722320482>failed like Teamspeak, and MumbleThey didn't "fail", people have used them for ages. Every time a new app takes over a niche, it's usually because they have bigger, better marketing division with more money. And it always happens. One day people will abandon Discord and move onto the shiny new VoIP app.
>>722321250This.Discord isn't forever
>>722320534top kek
>>722320482>Boring "feral tf" artist that does just anthro on four legs that hasn't improved at all for the past decade and now aggressively shills for AI
Nobody even knows how discord makes any fucking money. It operated at an enormous loss for years, surviving on grants somehow. Feds probably use it to make school shooters or something, or they use it to psychologically experiment on losers with no friends. I have absolutely no idea.
>>722320482Discord had a decent UI, the rest of them perpetually looked like fucking garbage, that's literally it.
I want to become a furry girl for an anon...
>>722321889>600x200 list of channels which highlights a name when they talk>or>application with so much wasted space that people have a dedicated "discord monitor"
>>722321250And it's worth noting that why Discord took off was because Skype ran itself to the ground.
>>722321963I want to sacrifice you to the Dark Lord Beelzebub and have your screaming soul cast down to the deepest pits of Hell.
>>722321848Discord sells user data for profit. You can’t have a Discord server, you can only use Discord’s own servers. They have unfettered access to everything on there.
>>722321963>girl
>>722320482reminder discord has more active users than twitter
>>722320482Because mumble wanted to charge a fee and discord didn't? My friends in the early 2010's had to pool for a fucking mumble server. We were so fucking happy when discord came along.
>>722322154mumble is free to setup and host, if you paid for it you got scammedt. ran a mumble server on my raspberry pi for years before discord
>>722320482The damage discord has done to the internet will never be undone. In the future it will be almost impossible to google solutions to niche problems as everyone posts on that faggot pedo app.
>>722322095your point?
>>722322154Mumble is free as in freedom and free as in free beer. You don’t have to pay to use it, you just need a server.
>>722321963Sorry, I'm gay.
>>722322261>have to join the official discord server and search using keywords in order to fix your niche problem about some software/modfucking retarded, especially when you have to click through shit ton of captcha/confirmations/rules about how you cannot say nigger
>>722321963Okay but you need to pass a webcam check ( can't be a big middle aged burly obese man :) )
>>722322391What if it's big middle aged burly obese man... but furry?
>>722322261You're blaming discord because you either don't know or you forgot but a shitload of info vanished into the void because no one bothered uploading the logs of their irc bouncer for semi-private channels.Same shit when skype was used.
>>722322469No.
>>722322507NTA, but sure, there has always been a shitload of info that's never been posted on something more publicly accessible site. And even if they were, those posts or details might be lost to the ether, because the site closed down or what have you.Nowdays though? Instead of using forums or the like, fair plenty mods just kind of say "join our discord" for any setup or tech support, instead of having a dedicated page. Like for example, I like to try various randomizers, and you wouldn't believe how often they just tell you to discord up, instead of taking a minute or two to write a simple txt file alongside the files. Especially silly when the randomizer's files might otherwise be publicly accessible on some place like github.
>chatting with a friend on discord>he reacts to my posts with emojis usually>one time he reacts with some server specific emoji>it's a gif of a girl sucking a bbc>he quickly removes itwhat the fuck kind of servers are people joining on this app
>>722323001Yeah the slow disappearance of README files has been bothering me too, not in freetard circles at least but for mods it's as you said, all instructions are locked on discord.
>>722323167should've confronted him about it, if hes a real friend he will spill the tea to you
>>722323281And then when you do decide to look up the discord server, the instructions might be buried away behind dozens or hundreds of messages, and you just better hope the discord search function finds the correct stuff you need.Just give me a README file, man.
>>722323167Why are you friendly with a shitskin or a tranny?
>>722323167>friend comes over>we play vidya and chat>he then wants to download some file>the browser defaults the last file path used>which points to my trap hentai folder
>>722323441this is why I use separate browsers
>>722323167yoir friend is a kike?
>>722323441always gotta remember to save something to the desktop at then end of each day.
>>722323167Once my friend with nitro used some generic reaction emoji and when I moused over it was from the Degrees Of Lewdity official 'cord.
>>722323167>xe’s not on the gay gooner ‘cordYikes…
>>722321963I wish faggots like you had better taste and hadn't ruined the fetish as a whole due to eating up the most basic troonslop ever, I miss it when tftg was actually interesting.
>>722321993For as much as Skype sucked, I do miss it. Spent a lot of time chatting with the bros on there.
>>722324204Skype was fine for a time, but honestly discord is better.I still prefer IRC over both of them, though.
>>722320482No persistent chat, there was a dark time where apparently it was extremely difficult to make a fucking chat program after they got rid of MSN Messenger and we got a few shitty programs until the Discord guy stepped up.In fact we still haven't recovered from the loss of MSN, MSN had unlimited free custom emotes and stickers, you could also play games on it, things that Discord has been adding slowly over the years. You could even send handwritten messages directly from the input box if you wanted to draw something and we still don't have that. It's been over 10 years and we're still playing catch-up to something we already had and the internet is so young nobody even knows it existed.

>>722324223otaku culture is always a fun time
>>722320482I would totally fuck him if it weren't tfshit.
>>722325102Faggot.
>>722323441Get a passworded .7z or a veracrypt volume or something, it takes 10 seconds to set up and then you never have to think about it ever again, except remembering that password.
>>722323673I love clicking on someone and seeing a mutual degenerate server.
>>722325291Should have an aftermath with the she/her hanging from the ceiling, gotta honor the meme properly.
The kids ain't right
>>722321889Why does a VOIP service need a "good" UI. You join the channel and minimize the program and never look at it.
>>722325236For cute anthro boys? Absolutely.
>>722321848Like other guy said governments and companies pay for the data they gather that and nitro from the few that have that
>>722325446Ew, niggers.
>>722324223>>722325446Fags leave, this is a tgtf thread.
>>722325291I went from social outcast to shut-in to violently racist bodybuilder.
im 27 and when i was in highschool and even before that, ts was the norm. im a thirdworlder and due to isp shenanigans hosting a ts server was mostly paid, very few people had the fancy internet required to be able to port forward themselves (CGNAT, dont ask). i faintly recall the interface being absolute cancer but maybe i was just a dumb kid and didnt remember it rightthen we moved to skype. skype was considerably better because it was free, but man was it laggy and buggy as fuck, tons of crashes and freezes everywhere, for everyonethen we moved on to discord. and idk what 4chan's issue with discord is at all. the devs are good boys that will nuke your server if someone reports it but thats the catch, IF someone reports it. im in a server rn with a bunch of edgelords and gore/cp/bestiality flies left and right as means of shock content and have been in there for years, zero bans because we dont invite strangers and therefore no one reports it, ever. voices are crystal clear, their codec is good and my ping to the sao paulo server is 4ms. can send images, can send videos, can call anyone whenever and all that is freehow exactly is teamspeak or raidcall meant to compete?
>>722325573Ji doesn't count due to immorality, fag.
>>722326329What do you mean "doesn't count"?>cute>male>anthro
>>722321963FAGGOT
>>722321963i love anons like this
>>722326468He isn't going to rot from twink death, and his "adult" form is cute.
>use discord for 10 years>have only had a single server for a tight knit group of friends>dont see any reason to join public servers and you spergs complain about trannies for some reason?
>>722321963Sluut
>>722326689they join porn servers obviously
>>722325760>I went from social outcast to shut-in to violently racist bodybuilder.Huh, weird, that's literally the same route I'm doing right now.
>>722326689I don't even know how to find a public server never tried just do what you said
>>722325783>>722326689>[platform] is full of trannies>"W-well that can't be true because I, personally, haven't seen any of them"Is this tranny bait or are my fellow anons this retarded?
>>722321848I would guess that discord is making some money now. Every third person I interact with seems to have discord nitro
>>722326931He's saying that you shouldn't be joining the public to begin with then You won't see troons
>>722327021Anon, just because you don't see them does not mean they aren't there, shitting up this very thread with the troon spam.
>>722326931i am the first person you quoted. discord isnt a 'platform' in the sense facebook or instagram are platforms. its as much as a platform as teamspeak was. you like a server, you join, you dislike a server, you leave. you're responsible for the content you feed yourself. if you hop into a public server, expect political correctness and trannies and fags. i never did in like a decade of use, not once. really not sure what your point istrannies breath oxygen, they eat meat, they drink water. what a fucking retarded take, 10 years of this shit and i havent engaged with trannies once
>>722320482The crowd that gayshit platform attracts is insufferable. Just a bunch of kids with meme opinions, mentally ill trannies, and furfaggots. I hate interacting with people but at least there's a basis of decorum that is mutually met. It's even worse on the Internet because you can get away with a lot more.
>>722321963>wants to be a furry girl>posts a generic weebshit girl.You're not off to a good start, faggot-kun.
I'm using discord since it started and I'm like on 3 server with my friends from different games thats allAnd I hear people are usually on like 20+ serversI only use it to be in touch with my old Runescape / WoW buddies and nothing else.
Pack it up.
>>722327114I wish it had been bait.No anon, tranny cases haven't skyrocketed due to this site, they also totally have not groomed a bajillion kids in it. Yes anon, your friends are totally based isolationists who will always remain by themselves all alone, and no anon, they're not ever going to change. No anon, they're not logging your conversations and totally won't be raping your server once the tranny mods tighten their hold.And no anon, your friends won't ever, ever ever grow politically sterile from joining other servers and become trannies themselves, ever.
>>722320482I'm not a furfag, but....
