    For voice, TeamSpeak

    For text chat, IRC

    For forums, phpBB or any other forum software

    Discord replacing the third is the saddest. It completely isn’t fit for purpose. Part of the reason you can’t find anything on Google now is that forums died, and Discord is unsearchable.

    Discord just switches it’s business model yearly to clone the one thing it hasn’t killed yet. Started out to kill TS and IRC, then went on to kill the forum, then it tried to kill Steam/GOG but failed, now it’s trying to kill Patreon.

      Discord is pretty great for video/voice chat - the things it tries to do outside of that can be frustrating.

      It’s miles ahead of having to use Ventrillo, Teamspeak, Skype like we had to in the past.

        Discord voice quality is significantly worse than TS3, and it has way less features actually related to voice chatting.

        As for Vent and especially Skype, it’s an improvement.
