i disagree, as a very early adopter of discord. early discord was rough around the edges, but it was still 10x better than any competitor because of how atrociously bad teamspeak/mumble/skype/ventrilo were. using skype was one of the worst communication experiences i have had on a computer - the fact that discord voice connections were semi-stable, not a complete hassle to set up, and had individual servers as well as DMs already made it better than any of its competiotors.
