    Group chats are not synonymous with a discord server. I dislike most things on this list because they don't have core server functionality and are just chat apps.

    For development teams, it's working very similarly to Discord, although the interface is somewhat different

    it's a app that only supports video calls and is not in any way similar to discord

    Awesome instant video meetings, but misplaced in this list as an "alternative", as this has absolutely no similarities to discord and doesn't serve the same use-case.
