About
Discord is a proprietary multimedia realtime chat-community web service and client application for desktop and mobile.
It was possibly the earliest available alternative to Slack, with one major difference being that users identify against a central server rather than individual servers. This allows for user interaction (DMs) outside of the context of a particular server, and also discovery of what servers and friends you share with others.
