Yes, this exactly! I still cannot fathom how Discord took off. It offers literally no advantages over forums, and introduces some massive disadvantages.
At the beginning it originally had an appeal that anyone could create a voice chat server for free in a matter of seconds.
Teamspeak needed a hosted dedicated server. Skype was "calls" and not communities. Mumble was hardly known.
I completely accept why it took off but I hate where it has gone. it's over complicated and feature creeped electron shite
Poor ventrillo. Not even a mention.
