Discord, a great communication software.

ScoopJohn · 11-13-2016, 06:46 PM

Not to be confused with the My Little Pony character called Discord, which has nothing to do with the thing i'm talking about.

Since a year ago, i was kindly using Skype until when i heard of Discord, a similar program which is a great communication chat software for gamers, and it was considered to be a replacement for TeamSpeak and Skype. From when i heard it, i enjoyed using it in which i have many discord servers i joined, and there's lots of nice features to check out.
The servers in Discord have multiple text and audio channels to make and it has a great support for bots. I'd suggest starting to use this so that we can have a 3dmm.com Discord server.

Thanks for the info. What exactly is better about this one?

discord is great, you don't need to run a server unlike TS/Mumble/etc, they host it for you for free. its mostly for gamers, i still use Skype to chat

Yeah, Skype is for talking to your Grandma

skype's international phone rates and call quality over data are awesome, allows me to pay only $30/mo for a great cell plan cause i just use Skype for long outbound calls / international calls (but that has nothing to do with this thread i guess)

NearHi · 11-15-2016, 09:37 PM

Does this have webcam?

Slime · 11-16-2016, 12:13 AM

no. the point of this is low-latency low-resource chat, for use while gaming or other situations where it would be in the background. and it has permanent rooms you can drop in/out of which is nice.

for straight chatting Skype is gonna be better, cause it uses more resources to give better quality, has more features like video, etc.

if anyone has had to use Slack, Discord has some similarities to that, i mentioned it back in that thread . it embeds stuff just as well in the text chat
