Discord could improve by adding a better interface for testing your input/output, that is lacking.

It's been pretty sufficient for me, all things given. Is the app detecting it? I can see levels, everything else happens at the system level no? Otherwise I definitely agree, Discord's voice has been a massive improvement for me. Plus, the overlay is a great feature baked in-Mumble, TeamSpeak and others require a third party download and often they're just....awful, obtrusive, resource intensive and otherwise in the damn way. Discord's overlay does what it can to stay out of the way. I like that.

Merely curious, not attempting to refute you here-but what would you like to see improved there?

Mumble has had a built-in overlay for years, and contrary to Discord's it actually works!

I used discord for the first time two days ago and I missed exactly this.

As a comparison point, I think it is Skype that friends you to a test bot who replies things to you. This would have saved me some awkwardness when joining the group.

Ah yeah, the Skype test call bot. I agree actually, this would be pretty handy to have.

That said, I really wouldn't be surprised if Discord gets to the point where they start supporting calling phone numbers directly. It's replaced a lot of voice communication channels with a segment of my friends since we all have it on our mobile phones.
