Krisp (Discord) Likely to steal data? (sh.itjust.works)

I wonder how many people using discord have this enabled by default. Pretty sure Krisp records everything you say and uses your voice to train ai models. Not that it's a big deal since everything on discord is completely insecure and not private at all.

I'd like to ditch discord but there's no way I can convince people to leave it, there's really nothing as easy out there right now. They'll put up with the enshittification until it's ads plastered all over the screen.

Ehhhh, Krisp is the least of Discord's privacy problems. I'd say start with all its monitoring of what you do on your system as low hanging fruit.

That being said, try to get all your friends to switch to SonoBus for voice chat, strictly. It’s awesome! It’s way lower latency (so less talking over each other), clear, point to point, dead easy to start since it doesn’t need an account, customizable for quiet or noisy mics, works on everything, I could go on and on.

    Here’s what I’m talking about:

    https://sonobus.net/

    And again, I think “use Discord for text, but use this for voice” is a much easier ask than trying to get them to login to some other chat app.

    Ill look into that! Sadly people aren't gonna change from discord, it has too many features and ease of use for them.

    I haven't digged a lot in that topic but when discord comes up I always wonder if network effect is the only thing that stops stoat.chat from replacing it

    I mean, all voice streams through Discord's servers. It’s not P2P. So there wouldn’t be any proof outside of their wording in the ToS.

    I think krisp is like another company and it goes to their servers as well maybe?? or does discord just use their software?

    Krisp processing happens on device using your cpu if it's enabled per their FAQ: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040843952-Krisp-FAQ

    Yeah its nearly impossible to get non techy people to swap, and there's nothing out there that can do voice, text, gifs, and screen sharing all in one. I already have enough on my plate convincing the SO to use all FOSS programs whenever possible and having them switch to linux.

    Nowadays if a program has 1 hiccup people freak out and run back into the arms of Google and meta.
