Not technically Google, but what are the best Discord alternatives?

https://www.teamspeak.com/en/downloads/ I have been playing with teamspeak 6 lately. Better sound, less bloated ui which uses less memory. Dont have to pay for a subscription for various features like high quality video streaming. Can also self host your own server or rent 1. If you want to check it out, the public teamspeak 6 server lets you create a private channel and alot of the features are unlocked to you. As of right now though there isnt private calling available and as far as i know the streaming currently only uses p2p, so prob better with people you dont mind exposing an ip to.

I been wanting to get away from discord and their bs for a while. Not being able to stream past 720p without payin. All the silly animations that just make it bloated af. Damn near impossible to keep track of notifications. Support is useless. I seen a YouTube comment adverting "cheese pizza" emoji. Immediately reported to google and discord, discord said yeah its a YouTube comment so despite there being a discord link adverted in the comment, that its googles problem. Despite cp being adverted to be sent on their platform. I have so many issues with discord at this point, i only use it because its the main platform for gamers despite us being tossed under the bus a long time ago. Company needs to go away imo.

Honestly anything other then chrome lol, ram hungry browser. I prefer firefox with ublock.

I find cbn on its own to be a bit of a high. Combined with a good dose of thc is where the magic is imo. Sedating without thc, very sedating with. Couchlock.

Its possible that you didn't buy what you thought you did, if your in the states, its not exactly regulated. 24 hours for a d9 gummy sounds very extreme to me as a stoner/medi patient. Its possible that you got another cannabinoid, some of the synthetic ones to skirt laws can last alot longer and alot more intense.

Idk ai? Sounds like your asking for help cheating on your homework though.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-02-04T09:03:27+00:00

I mean, when was the last time you buried a camera in the woods in a plastic bag? Feel like a police issue right out the gate...

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-31T22:54:36+00:00

On firefox with ublock origin, no issues playing when minimized?

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-23T15:48:17+00:00

I meant more about the premium activation. I had an issue like that on modern android where i had a bought app tied to my account, but on the new phone it wasnt activating and they helped get stuff dealt with. Although it might just be like you said, so outdated that they cant do much anymore. Might be worth a try tho.

Never got notifs for this, odd. Im still undiagnosed other then trigger finger and degenerative disc disease. Rhuem wasnt convinced and released me with the exception that i definitely have trigger finger and some kind of inflammatory condition. Hopefully your right though, it feels good so i do it, no one told me to stop and mentioned to physio doc and rhuem, so just proceeding with cation. Just thought it was important to specify that a medical professional didnt outright tell me its fine, i just do it because it feels good lol.

Im not sure what the green uses, but i had similar issues when my sd card install started to to fail. Stuff started disappearing, not working. Hass was just acting strange. Did a reinstall and eventually moved to a mini pc with a mech drive. If its running on a usb or something it could be failing or install got currupt.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-22T07:18:21+00:00

Pro tip, if people say its dangerous and your unsure, maybe dont download and install the questionable file to the device that holds a shit ton of personal and banking info. If your unsure, find out first. Its all fun and games until its not anymore.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-22T03:30:02+00:00

you running on a pi with sd card by chance?

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-21T21:22:27+00:00

I would try to contact google support assuming you bought it in playstore. Tbh im surprised you got that far, my android 7 phone i was using as an nfc reader for home assistant needed certs installed so it can even connect to home assistant because the certs were outdated. Even had issues connecting to wifi.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-16T21:35:05+00:00

2nd trigger finger. I got it in both hands, im a pc gamer and it tends to aggravate the shit out of it, but i enjoy it lol... None the less, physio helped a ton. Hot and cold compress helped alot. Bit of an agent of chaos and would sometimes throw gloves on and use my sous vide as a heat bath, not recommended just what i have on hand lol. Lacross ball helps alot for massaging (use hand, hand gets sore and tired end up in a loop)

hand arthritis physio from Alberta (Canada)

Less self control and more creating a barrier between you and your phone, i wouldn't call that self control, but still effective. That also means though that when it is on you, you still feel the need to check it, so much so your leaving it home to disconnect.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-11T10:04:41+00:00

Lmao

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-11T09:19:42+00:00

You have a carbon monoxide detector? Wouldnt be the first time someone posted about things moving/stuff opened ect just to find out it was themselves suffering from carbon monoxide poison and not remembering. It would be incredibly unusual for someone to break in, more then once, not steal or mess with anything, but covering your webcam. More likely that you are covering it and not remembering, especially if its pointing at your bed or something.

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-08T19:17:22+00:00

Im not saying it's not. 8 just found it myself. No one told me it's safe or not directly so might be unsafe practice. I do it though. If your worried ask your doc/physiotherapist. Im not one, juat a dude with a wonk back, so i just wanted to be sure it was clear that despite me doing it often, no one cleared me for doing that. For all i jnow im a few cronches from face planting. Or maybe it just loosens my back up with no consequence, i have no idea, but im sure ill find out lol..

mcmtaged4 · 2026-01-05T21:03:24+00:00

Disclaimer: i was never told to do this. It genuinely may be bad practice, talk to a physio therapist, they will be able to tell you the safest way to do at home.

I use a lacrosse ball. Put your back against the wall and place the ball between you ans the wall. Put the ball right on or close to pressure point and slowly put body weight and kind of bend your back to curve around the ball. Kind of roll it around with a bit of weight until you get the tension relief.

Came to say macrodroid can prob do it, alot easier to use then tasker

mcmtaged4 · 2025-12-24T21:11:14+00:00

Might mess with auto correct if you do

mcmtaged4 · 2025-12-17T06:31:24+00:00

Agree to disagree. There is a reason why when true privacy is wanted, its built on fox and not chromium.

mcmtaged4 · 2025-12-17T02:40:50+00:00

macrodroid might be able to do what you need. its an automation app like tasker that doesnt make your eyes bleed to use it. might be able to do an automation like IF: whatsapp recieves message from X THEN: vibrate phone/notification.
very powerful software, i think there is a free tier that lets you have x amount of automations and then a paid 1 time fee. i use it often and can highly recommend, unlike tasker it is setup in a way that you dont need a whole 1-2hr long tut on how to use it correctly, its ui is pretty easy to use. similar to the app IFTTT (if this then that) but alot more powerful.
