Could anyone explain the attraction of discord? To me it's UX is atrocious.
Back in 2016 I managed to get all of my gaming friends on discord simply by saying "It's like Skype but it doesn't suck"
We simply needed something that worked and let us do voip calls without having to jump through the hoops of setting up ventrilo, mumble or teamspeak. Skype was so aggressively bad that any alternative was like finding a waterpark in the middle of the desert.
