I don't have a "beef" with Discord, but I have the feeling I really don't get it when I use it. I joined a couple of servers related to games I play and some sports. But I feel like there's conversations going on that I can't see. Do I need to message some special bot? Do I need an invite or be admitted before I can see some hidden channels? There are voice chats, there are so many settings. I definitely feel like I need someone to handhold and clue me in to a few more things about it before I feel "comfortable" using it. Discord is a lot to deal with.

FWIW, that's more a matter of customizations for those servers than Discord in general. Vanilla discord is... still kind of annoying, but not terribly confusing. Mostly just Slack with voice/video chat and bad threading.

  Slack has voice / video chat no?

    True, ish. The voice is much newer, not part of their DNA like it is for discord, and I don't think they have video.

      Can confirm that Slack has video, following their acquisition of Screenhero
