I wonder why Discord isn't more popular, it's basically Slack with voice chat baked in that works really well. All of your favorite Slack shortcuts work exactly the same. Even pressing the Up arrow key to edit your last message.

I guess the 'gamer' branding hurts it's potential use in the workplace.



Yeah it's heavily gamer focused. Not that it coulnd't be used for business.

Slack is a lot more featureful though and you can do cool integrations.

Discord has no search ability.

Discord is also conspicuously free and I think everyone's waiting to see if they implode or not.

I love Discord.

Yet. It's in our pipeline.
