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.

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.
