Forums. Lemmy. Group Chats.
What does discord do that these dont bar create a barrier for use?
Voice chat and screen sharing
Like a phone call? Group voice chats? I would have thought tis was built into consoles and services, seems odd that Twitch doesnt have this feature.
I have only ever seen it used as a terrible forum clone where discussion sucks and security is poor.
Yep, or even a watch party (group voice chat with someone sharing his screen). You can't do that on forums or lemmy.
Not sure about twitch, I only use that to watch streams, never to do streams.
