They supposedly can be disabled in settings- but we all know that won't last. They're going full Microsoft Skype mode and it's only a matter of time.

TeamSpeak 3 now has a UI similar to discord.

Kinda surprised TS is still around. It’s all we used in the ‘00s for gaming, but slowly lost relevance thanks to in-game VoIP and other popular solutions like discord.

hmm, interesting. Teamspeak was never really something i've bothered looking into. Might give it a look, though to be clear, im not interface picky, i hate discord, through and through, it's awful.

Needs a license for larger concurrent user counts, which is probably why it fell off in favour of Mumble and then Discord.

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 months ago

yeah this is my main concern, anything with licensing can change at a moments notice, just look at vmware lol.

I do use mumble though, it's great, just a little feature lite. But what it does is perfect so can't really complain.

If you want to get to know Teamspeak, you could start by trying to share a file with someone on the same server! Good luck have fun!

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 months ago

yeah, i might give it a shot if i find nothing else interesting.

Mumble is better
