What is Discord and how does it work?

[saramax]

I’ve heard a lot about Discord, especially from gamers and online communities, but I’m not completely sure what it does. From what I understand, Discord is a communication platform where people can create servers to chat through text, voice, or video. Many gaming groups, study communities, and hobby groups seem to use it to stay connected. How exactly does Discord work, and is it safe for kids or teenagers to use? Are there parental controls or privacy settings that parents should know about?

Discord works on phones, tablets, and computers, letting members chat, share files, stream games, or join voice calls with friends.
