Discord's a web app. You can get the desktop version if you want, but that's just the webapp + the ability to do push-to-talk.

EDIT@ Satty: Also yeah, the little temporary boxes that pop in the corner/side of the screen then go away are toast notifications.

I only really use mobile Skype which might explain why I'm confused but what problems do people actually have with Skype?

Just from what I've seen most of the conversation on Skype has been through the text chat with the occasional voice chat maybe a couple of times a month? From what's been said here it doesn't sound like Discord has particularly good facilities for text chat, and I mean I'm not seeing a massive demand for better voice chat services in the Skype chat or in the forum, could be wrong though I guess.

uh oh

For me personally it's just that Skype is a bloated pos that makes my computer want to shit itself whenever I start it up, sometimes even when I just do simple things like clicking on a chat or trying to start a voice chat. Discord is downright ethereal compared to skype in how fast it starts up and how smooth it works.

My only issue is that during a voice chat over discord the other day sometimes I'd get massive ping spikes, like over 400ms. I figure it's because you don't pay for your own server like in TS3 and the discord servers are either full or aren't good or something, but otherwise it's a huge improvement over skype for me.

Sound the horn and call the cry: "How many of them can we make die?"

That's my main issue as well, I regularly have to close and reopen Skype multiple times before it'll work properly because it freezes on startup so often. In general, the most recent Skype updates have been geared toward mobile use, but as a side effect they're making desktop Skype really hard to use, which is probably why you haven't noticed it as much.

Let's not forget that Microsoft is starting to discriminate users by MAKING them update to the newer, shittier version in order to join a conference instead of using 6.20 (which tries to join the call-in-progress, but gets taunted with '(user) needs to update their Skype and cannot join this call') like some of us have been using because it was the last stable, less resource-hogging version. I'm happy to use Discord, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what the devs can do with it, because frankly, I'm sick of Microsoft's bullshit. If it's not broken, don't "fix" it.

...but it DOES come down to personal preference, really.

Can someone repost an invite link for the ToK room? I've been using Discord with the MaturityChat group and we love it.

This might work? I like Discord, but it isn't very intuitive.


oh wait this will do it https://discord.gg/nknWX

I think it's starting to get a bit better, though it gets hard for me to follow all the sub channels in the various servers I'm in.

I haven't used Discord yet, but I use Curse instead. It runs well with the games I play (no lag), and it is pretty easy to use. It's like Skype, except I don't think it has the Webcam feature (but I haven't tried so who knows).
