Discord's main killer feature is Discovery of who is currently voice chatting in a room.
I've not seen any alternative platform that has the same level of voice discovery that discord does. Discord makes it easy to have a community, oh I see Bob's online, let's jump in and say hi.
It really is the local bar, you can just walk up and talk to anybody. That is absolutely critical. It's open discovery, it's effortless communication of status.
This is a feature I really love on Discord and this is one I try to find, but like you say I dont find any alternative as good.
