I have not used Discord much so I come at this from a degree of ignorance. But from what I have seen I tend to agree regards your comments of their proprietary oversight on the platform and folks being at the whim of them as to what works, disappears, appears, and what it costs.

So many options to do video, voice and text... is this the right one to be on? I'm picking many would say yes, but still it gives me pause :)
