    Mumble is an excellent alternative to Discord for gamers who need a lightweight VoIP app. It doesn't support all of the features that Discord has. It's not exactly a 1:1 alternative, but if you need something to talk to your gaming buddies, this is the one.

    TeamSpeak, solely for its VoiP quality is the best alternative to Discord. People migrated to Discord to experience something more than TeamSpeak. Yes, Discord did deliver, but not with the same voice quality and stability that TeamSpeak does.

    TeamSpeak 3 is a gold standard and I would recommend it to any gamer who needs a stable VoIP app.
