What Discord is
Discord is a group chat product for people playing games, spending time with friends, or building a worldwide community. It supports talking, playing and hanging out in shared spaces.
People can use voice, video and text chat, along with custom emoji, stickers, soundboard effects, avatars, statuses and profiles. They can stream games, shows, photos or homework. Users can enter and leave voice or text chats without calling or inviting others. In supported games, they can see friends’ modes or characters and join them directly.
