Discord is convenient

even my mom's at discord at this point
it's just so convenient and simple to use
now imagine teaching an elderly parent how to use something like riot-android - yikes
all the weird stuff like verifying other user's devices every time, push notifications being broken 80% of the time, synchronisation issues
whereas with discord you just sign up and can immediately send rich media to people, make voice and video calls with a single tap
convenience beats privacy i guess

This is an 18+ website.

I'll bite.

>all the weird stuff like verifying other user's devices every time
You only have to do this if encryption is forced in the room.
>push notifications being broken 80% of the time
Things that never happen

Matrix/Riot can do this
>with a single tap
Stop lying. It takes at least 3 taps on both platforms

Try harder next time faggot. Thanks for playing

Just sayin:
Discord is centralized, not open source, verification has really improved on riot, and with device key signing it will literally be comfortable, discord has no e2ee, push notifications are fixed

Discord is full of twitch zoomers and steam boomers.

Youthful Linux Chads use Mumble.
Prove me wrong.

it must be convenient for sharing cub furry porn, you disgusting pedo

I hope she gets spammed with furry CP and gets cyber bullied.

>imagine being forced to use a shitty webapp just to chat with your friends.
>imagine not using the terminal for textbased communication

>riot-android
Never heard of it, seems interesting. Redpill me on it

mumble is far more convenient. You don't have to make some retarded fucking account. Even if it was was 14 yr olds gaymen, steam would be better than discord.

>riot-android
RiotX soon!

It shouldn't be too hard to use the discord api to make your own front-end. That way you could still communicate with normalfags, without the application taking processing power or scraping your computer. You could even implement encryption (given that your friends will use your client)

>muh processing power
I went to the task manager and my Discord is fluctuating from 0.1% to 0.2% CPU usage. Sad attempt at smearing Discord.

*system resources, more specifically RAM. Right now discord sits at 311MB at idle, that's 300MB more bloat than the average Jow Forums user wants. I'm actually defending discord against the irc users, what I'm saying is that you could get lots of the features of irc and then more if you're willing to do some programming.

Can you make money making discord bots for people? I might start doing that to make my months a bit easier to go through financially.

fpbp

discord feelz cozy - if that makes sense.

>Mumble
>not vent

There are some lightweight FOSS third-party clients already available (e.g. bitlbee-discord, 6cord), though most are limited to just reading and sending chat messages in the channels you're in and have significantly less features than a standard IRC client.

>You could even implement encryption
Questionably useful, since there are more pleasant E2EE chat platforms; if you had to use your own homebrew client, you might as well use Matrix, which does the same job way better, at that point.

Just because it doesn't eat RAM on your computer doesn't mean it doesn't on all computers. (This is discord idle at the start menu)

Are you in a lot of servers or something? That could explain it since I'm not a member in any server.
