    What does discord do that these dont bar create a barrier for use?

        I’ve got that in my group chats in Telegram but since we should all be moving to FOSS and decentralization, have you considered setting up Jitsi? It integrates with Matrix too. That already pretty much gets you most discord functionality that people care about.

        Like a phone call? Group voice chats? I would have thought tis was built into consoles and services, seems odd that Twitch doesnt have this feature.

        I have only ever seen it used as a terrible forum clone where discussion sucks and security is poor.

          Yep, or even a watch party (group voice chat with someone sharing his screen). You can’t do that on forums or lemmy.

          Not sure about twitch, I only use that to watch streams, never to do streams.
