How about clicking the bright red phone hang up button.

Other than that, most chat apps minimize to tray these days. You can toggle that behavior in the settings.

With your last point, I agree. It's just inherent to being an electron app I guess.



Ah, you're right, I didn't see that setting. The button to disconnect is white for me, though. I'll have to look again next time, maybe I'm going crazy.

A barebones Electron app has maybe ~100MB memory overhead and starts without noticeable delay. To me this seems like the same problem that leads to oversized and sluggish websites. Snappy, lightweight Electron apps exist, though they're uncommon.


Oh, they well could have changed the color of the button then. Haven't used voice in a while.

And yeah, discord is for sure very javascript heavy.


It seems obvious to me, but I've seen a number of people just sticking around in a voice channel after the chat was done.

That isn't always there. If you navigate away from the voice channel page to read something, your only option is that tiny little button on the corner; or navigating back to the voice channel page, which is unintuitive itself.
