A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Discord:
They started the software as a light weight voip solution for gamers. And imo they kinda lost focus a long time ago. It is now a sluggish, bloated, messy piece of electron software that has privacy issues and runs very poorly. They keep adding new features that are all paywalled and the pricing is just unreasonable. I'm not against paying for a service at all especially if it is free of ads but i feel like 10$ a month is just way too much for a chat app.
Discord still runs way better than Slack though.
well...idk. I didn't use slack in years but it's not really a good point for discord.
It's like advertising Chlamydia with the slogan "It's not nearly as bad as Sysphilis! Give it a try!
What does that make Teams? 😛
It's a microsoft product. So it's definitely the worst kind of infection
And unlike Chlamydia I'm not having nearly as much fun getting it.
probably some kind of autoimmune disease without any cure
