    Lemmy would be a FAR better platform to run a video game community on than Discord.

    Lemmy does not have voice chat.

      If only discord had stuck to just voice chat. They are miles better in that arena than other options were at the time. I just hate how it also replaced forums. And issue trackers. And some people try to run wikis and image boorus and everything else under the sun as a discord server

      This is an issue I see with Lemmy regarding Discord. Many people here seem to think of Discord as a messaging platform only. Which is weird because I don’t know anyone who uses it strictly for text. For example my friend group is probably 60% voice, 30% video/screen sharing & 10% text.

        I mean it depends on the community but definitely for gaming it’s used quite often as a cross-platform voice chat solution.
