Discord was a train wreck from the off

Not sure where the discord hate is coming from (besides the new mobile app). If you're someone who has to use Teams for work, surely you'd kill to switch to Discord instead.

I honestly like the new mobile experience. It seems more tidy.

When people say that it's "literally unusable" I'm like "what the fuck were you using it for?"

Imo it was unusable when the new UI just came out. It was sluggish af, and would take significantly longer to cold start.

I still don't like how a lot of buttons that used to be easily accessible from pretty much anywhere are now behind submenus or flyouts or whatever, but at least it's usable now.

Yeah they had a bad rollout of the new UI but now it's okay. Not great but I've seen far worse

I have always hated discord's interface. Just because something else is worse doesn't give Discord a free pass.

What do you use? Skype, teamspeak, mumble, ventrillo were all blown out of the water by discord imo, except for niche things like the whisper feature on ts for large groups

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Discord, cause everyone is there. Curse Voice had it stomped by miles, any chat room had the chatroom feature beat, anyone could design a better UI, but it has everything in the same place, and I think being free and custom bots gave it critical mass.

Doesn't mean it's good.

Thank god someone mentioned Teams. I don’t have it on mobile anymore, but the desktop app is insane.
