      Wasn’t Discord itself already part of that, I mean there’s

      • general “jabber” protocol stuff
      • Google chat/talk
      • Discord
      • FB messenger
      • Signal
      • Steam chat/voice
      • Teams/Skype/Whatever
      • Line
      • Kaokao (Korea)
      • WhatsApp *WeChat (China)
      • etc etc

      And that all replaced the oldies like MSN and ICQ etc
