A gamer-oriented platform that allows users to communicate via text, audio, and video, Discord is a great alternative to Skype and TeamSpeak.
Also, the platform allows users to share the screen of their PC or other applications while on a video call. The process is simple and can be done directly from the Discord call menu.
Check out this tutorial on how to start a video call on Discord and share the screen with your friends on the platform:
