Maybe this is just me and my circle but if someone just wants to talk I'd typically expect that more over discord or something like that rather than phone call unless they're older.

Other than that phone call is for urgent stuff or something that's going to have a lot of back and forth and is quicker pver phone.

Sure, my work uses discord, and I know friends that use it. But my family doesn't. Plus, if you do sales, or job searching, or anything that involves talking to people for work who don't directly work for your company then Discord is a little awkward. A phone or zoom call is better.

Discord, that's a good one. That's a gaming communication app.

You'll be screwed in 4-5 years when it goes belly up.

No, Discord is a communication app that is mainly used for gaming.

That is like calling Whatsapp a family communication app.
