Discord initially launched on May 13, 2015, and grew to become one of the most important VoIP platforms with the ability to do instant messaging, video conferences, and more among gamers all over the world. Due to all these features, if you are also excited to join the platform to connect with your friends (and even with devs on their official servers), keep reading till the end.
What is Discord App?
Discord is a free platform for gamers used for instant text messaging, voice & video calls, and even sharing media files with friends or groups. By accepting friends you already know and adjusting privacy settings, it is a really safe platform to use. Discord was previously known as the Discord app under the domain name discordapp.com. Which was later changed to the game we see today. This name change was also reflected in their official Twitter account.
All calls, chats, and media sharing happens within either private chats or free groups known as “servers”. Discord Servers act as both chat rooms and voice channels for freely communicating with others. You can create your own servers and add your friends to them. You may also join other servers which are already existing out there.
How to Create or Join a Discord Server?
To easily create a server, click on the “+” icon below the home icon with the Discord logo. This will allow you to either select from multiple prebuild templates for gaming, study group, friends, etc or you can start with your own fresh server template. Server Templates will allow you to copy the categories, channels, and permissions to easily set up your server.
To join a server you need an invite link. Once you have this click on the same + icon in Discord but select the “Join a Server” instead of “create”. You can even directly click on the open invites shared by any devs you know, or from within Roblox to directly join the servers.
