A killer use of Discord... push-to-talk audio connection to everyone else in the room.
If your team is on-call and incident management could be improved, just try putting your team in a Discord room and see what happens. Don't put managers in there, just the engineers.
It works great.

Slack just added this recently: https://slack.com/intl/en-de/help/articles/4402059015315-Start-a-huddle-in-a-channel-or-direct-message https://slack.com/intl/en-de/help/articles/4402059015315-Sta...

- retor 5y agoI experience them as very different. Huddles are more like the audio calls Slack already had, but without the channel notifications. It lacks the auto silence that Discord has, so you can't just hang in a huddle waiting for someone to talk. There's a constant hiss. I guess they might change it, but didn't sound like this was something they were even thinking of as an issue when I spoke with a representative.
- sdflhasjd 5y agoI'd hardly call it a killer feature when it's something Teamspeak, etc have had for ages. The killer feature, i.e that which sets it apart from the rest, is the rich text chat and that it's free.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoI thought the killer feature is that it is free and convenient. No one has to do any work to setup a server like with Teamspeak or Ventrilo. It has been a long time since I played video games, but back then those were the two popular options.
