I'd like to use something other then Discord, but the problem is none of my friends give a shit about privacy and all use Discord still. I will have zero chance getting them to make the switch when they inherently don't care about their data privacy.
I have tried to change my friends too but also another thing is quality audio and noise suppression. I have tried Mumble , Jami , Element all of them lack a proper noise suppression algorithm that's its good enough for us.
I tried running the armcord wrapper, but when I wanted to stream a game to my friends in the server, it wouldn't work through armcord , then getting armcord shut down and logged into Discord proper was hugely problematic so I ended up abandoning it all together.
I think the hurdle we have is, no one but the privacy minded want to change, so for individual decisions like switching off of gmail to proton mail, works great, but for apps that are group based in nature, and only have value if everyone is using it..... just about impossible to make the switch.
