Hard pass. I already skip almost every video posted here because most of them could be an article instead. No way I would participate in a voice chat with other people where I am sure at least one of them is going to be yelling for no reason.

Isn't that essentially one of the features of Discord?

It's not for me. I prefer text so I can think out my words.

Call of Duty lobby is why this is a bad idea.

First and foremost, I think this just fundamentally wouldn't work out because it requires enough people being on a given thread at the same time, which would be on the rare side for most threads, then on top of that they also need to be in a position to talk freely, ie - Not on the toilet, not in their open floorplan cube at work. The two place most commenting happens.

More subjectively, IMO, the times this would work out and be civil and a good conversation, would be far outweighed by the ones where it went south.

Sounds like a huge feature creep that would require many more developers, specifically those with experience in audio software development and low-latency content delivery. Plus, Matrix practically has this feature.
