I'm very curious... For anyone here that uses Discord, how often are you using the voice calls / screen shares?

Versus how often are you typing / sharing memes?

    3 times a week, for 2-3 hours at a time, almost every week, for the last 3 years I've used the Voice Chat.

    I used to use the Video Calls for my weekly piano lessons but the quality was so inconsistent that we switched to WhatsApp for that.

    Screensharing, maybe about 1-3 times a week, there's a server I'm in that do streaming of whole movies via the screensharing, with the text chat used for live reactions. Also one of the players in my TTRPG session has perennial problems where the Virtual Tabletop refuses to load for her and she "remote controls" her character by saying to the GM "can you move her to this space please?"
