discord because people actually use it

People are so lazy nowadays

Those other programs won't replace Discord. Discord is popular because you can access servers in your browser, via the standalone desktop program, or on mobile. It's also popular because it's as easy to use as "download, join server." FOSS programs frequently forget about the third type of freedom: time. Discord lets you get up and running right away with zero configuration.

>fellow gamers
terrorist

you can be a special snowflake all you want, but thats not gonna stop discord from being the easiest to use and incredibly convenient

tox is incredibly easy to use and is not nearly as bloated

fpbp

I used to use mumble but my friend's coworkers were too fucking stupid to set it up properly. I eventually just stopped hosting our server and we moved to discord.

I already use this with a few friends, but I'll never use it as my primary IM, I prefer Wire to talk to my close friends a family.

>some random user starting the trend and having any success compared to all the game communities that have already setup shop there

let me guess
jews are lowkey involved

>tox im
>tox ic
>toxic

>it's as easy to use as "download, join server."
like almost any other program Mumble Ventrillo And Team Speak all have that exact same thing but they aren't as popular
it's just normies using the product with the largest marketing budget

Not really, the world isn't black and white you autist.

You're here too.

and you know
the best product
with the most features
and the best UI

gen z kids literally grew up giving away all their personal information online
no wonder they don't care about that stuff

>muh privacy
why do people constantly try to distance themseves from sites and services in fear that they'll steal their data when virtually anything technological does that? Your ISP has your data, the government has every little thing you do online on record, Hiro's been ratted out for selling data on this site multiple times before. Why do you people care about this stuff when you're being sucked of your 'privacy' from like 20 sources at the moment?

yeah man a shill for free software
shut the fuck up you corporate pissant

>Most features
Like what? pointless notifications, emotes, and channels?

>Your ISP has your data
I don't think you understand encryption. Yes they might store all my traffic. But that doesn't matter.

Based

Yep. You don't think people care about that stuff? You're nuts.

at least its not gab

>trusting american search engines partnered with amazon

All garbage and pointless features. Etika yourself

>notifications and channels
>pointless
imagine if you put as much effort into shitposting as you do shilling

Porn Channels, Regular downtime for VoIP and so much more join my discord now friend discord.gg/ROFLMAO

>discord still doesn't have a start minimized option

I'm not screaming about "normies" being herd animals. We're all social animals, you are too. Stop being a hypocrite.

>stupid shit site has a data breach
>Russian/Chinks hackers leak your data
Man, I do love the idea of 3rd scammers and hackers having a whole profile of me in their database.

>NEW messager
>while things like Empathy exists
It's all about marketing, I guess.

YOU
ARE
HERE
TOO
NOT GETTING ANY SEX LMAO

Compromised, use Startpage instead.

I'm glad my friends aren't retarded enough to find mumble difficult

Ew, imagine getting so triggered by the truth that you start projecting in all caps lmao cant relate

I don't talk to people. Haven't done so since 7 years.

>Mumble
enjoy wasting time making some certificate shit and still not being able to use the program at all.
>Ventrillo
Old shit that never patched out simple exploits like instant channel hopping/flooding.
>Teamspeak
Actually ok, but lacks all the features discord has.

Have sex, incel

>What's bloated about [Electron desktop app #632]
gee, I wonder

You're too kind, user, but please, you take care of your own virginity before helping your fellow incels LOL. You've earned it!

Seriously, have sex, I'm cringing over here with how oblivious you are.

Well those aren't the best example since they are all made as VoIP programs and not whatever you call that clusterfuck of features that discord is

>privacy
Have you ever considered that maybe most people don't their vidya-related shitposting to be sensitive information?

Already got you covered bud. But please, make your single mother proud and at least hire a hooker or something just so she isn't thinking of how much of a failure her incel son is on her death bed!

Nobody was screaming about anything until you showed up, you fuckin autist

I'm begging you, have sex for your own mental health. Maybe you'll stop coming to Yea Forums once you start having sex.

>Maybe you'll stop coming to Yea Forums once you start having sex.
That sounds an awful lot like an admission of virginity. I guess that means you've been projecting all this time. Big yikes, sweetie. Prayers.

Discord because it werks

have sex and dilate unironically

>compromised
It was always cucked retard, use Qwant

Really gets the noggin joggin

Confirmed for incel. Thanks for playing!

There's literally nothing wrong with shilling for free open source programs.

RENT FREE

Indeed, you are. Thanks for confirming it.

stop replying to each other and add each other on discord already you fags

/g/-esque shitposting is fun and all,
but
are correct
that, and that no one cares about the privacy of video game nerd stuff

make a better program, or fuck off

pretty lame dude

im not a terrorist or a pedophile so discord

None of you stupid retards have even tried Tox much less taken a look at the UI. It's even easier than discord and works out the box even better, you can sign up within the app no email required just user and pass that's it, fucking easy. Yea Forums is the dumbest fucking board

>sullying the good name of of the gorons
Get fucked cunt

>make a better program, or fuck off
But there are better programs, people just dont wanna try them cause its not discord.
And "my friends arent there lol"
Tox has every one of those features you mentioned.

you think youre funny with your bait but ironically discord has the most pedos and terrorists cause they're all retarded

I mean I don't care if you do or not, but I'm not going to use it.

You can't really send offline messages with the Tox protocol, I don't know how it's supposed to replace Discord. Tox is great if you're a drug dealer or plotting a rebellion in your country though.

im honoring chris's name
you think he'd use retard normalfaggot shit like discunt?

not bait, i'm not a terrorist or a pedophile and i use an adblocker and a vpn when i browse the internet so there's literally no reason for me to care if someone sells what little data i put on the internet in the first place
anyone who uses discord for pizza or "alt-right" (lmao) shit is actually retarded

I'll be your friend cute anime poster

sure here's my tox
have you been completely shut away from the app that you use? there has been a ton of dramatic illegality that happens within discord, loads of pedos and cults that have been banned, tons of politically extremist content that happens there all the time, it's a hub for dumb criminals and idiots

>But there are better programs, people just dont wanna try them cause its not discord.
>And "my friends arent there lol"
?????
Talking to your friends is literally the point of all these programs.

People not adopting Tox is a marketing failure on the program team's end, failure to offer something that an established product (dsicord) does not, your own fault for not convincing your friends, or a combination.

>People not adopting Tox is a marketing failure on the program team's end, failure to offer something that an established product (dsicord) does not, your own fault for not convincing your friends, or a combination.

the team doesn't advertise because it's free
it has all the features necessary to make communication easy with an unbloated UI

>marketing failure
There's no marketing because its a FOSS program retard.
There's no big company hiring shills to distribute "swag" to their reddit audience. It's just a bunch of nerds in their basements all contributing to make a good program, as opposed to onions filled furries filling their pockets selling the data of retards like you to china.
Since there's no money flowing, it comes to the people with half a brain to try and let others know what it even is, but your way of thinking isnt helping anyone.

hey fellas I'm OP and well basically I am a huge faggot

I don't give a shit about any this, or why or why not they don't market.

My point was that
>my friends aren't there
*IS* a valid reason to not use a fucking communications program, and usage adoption rates are objective metrics of what constitutes a "good" communications program.

Maybe they should advertise, even hire people like to do it.
sincerely, not trying to be a smug dick.

Tox is objectively worse than Discord in many basic features. People that act like FOSS applications are somehow more secure for normies when normies don't bother to check hashes or what they're downloading are deluded as fuck as well.

FOSS apps are great if your community consists of FOSS developers. The problem is that as other anons have mentioned, they often sacrifice usability. Like how GIMP's UI design has been embarrassingly bad for a long time.
