Dumping Skype

[Corile]

Having used Discord for almost the past half a year for several things I have just one thing to say:

Yes, it is better than skype. Yes, you should switch.

The only REAL problem with Discord is that it's built on the Electron framework which is occasionally slow to start up - but nowhere near as slow as the new skype. And it's a small price to pay for a system that is constantly updated, robust and extended with new features pmuch every week. And if there's something that enough people want and enough people poke H&C on twitter, it will be added.

More and more people are actually switching to Discord, mostly in the gaming community. I saw that almost all group voice chats on IEM this year ran on Discord, which certainly shows how popular this platform is getting.

@edit:
Also if you don't want to use the voice chats I guess there's an alternative in the form of Slack, but imo discord is much better.
