Discord Audio Chat has sometimes been very confusing for users as you cannot really type in a voice channel as you have to switch between channels just to share a link or a funny GIF. But Discord just enabled text chat on voice channels across all platforms as every channel will now include a dedicated section where users will be able to type out the content they want to and they won’t even have to join the call to participate.

Voice channels will now have the same permissions as regular text chats, so moderators will be able to limit the ability to send messages, stickers and other content.

This feature is currently free for every server as it’s available for servers that haven’t been set to community status bond managers can opt in if they’re comfortable. This new move will really help reduce confusion and the preparation of channels created solely to handle text chat for voice users.
