minus-squareEx Nummis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19arrow-down2·1 year agoI’ve always hated Discord since the very beginning. At least now I have yet another really good reason. Never used it, never will. Ventrilo for lyfe.
minus-squareairikr@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up14·1 year agoFor me it’s Mumble. Open sourced and completely free with encryption, and temporary chat logs.
minus-squareacockworkorange@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoVentrilo looks someone’s bad first open source project, but it’s proprietary. The audio quality must be orgasmic for people to use it.

minus-squareKaryoplasma@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoIt was XFire -> TS -> Vent -> Skype -> Discord for me.
minus-squareacockworkorange@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoSo like XMPP, SIP, Mumble, or Matrix without the chat part.
minus-squareacockworkorange@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 year agoNothing. Like, absolutely nothing. It didn’t keep up with the times. I spent am untold amount of time on IRC, but the fact that you have to be online to have a chance to read messages just doesn’t jive with most people’s schedules anymore.
minus-squarex00z@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoAudio quality Teamspeak3, Discord and Mumble all use Opus Voice Teamspeak2 and Ventrilo used Speex and eventually CELT. CELT is decent but Opus is better. WIth current hardware and cheap hosting, setting Opus Voice to max quality is best.
