If your child is part of the gaming world, chances are they’ve heard of Discord. This platform has become the go-to hangout for gamers to connect, share victories, and dive deep into their favorite games. But what exactly is Discord, and how can it benefit your child?
Let’s explore Discord and discover how it can enhance your child’s gaming experience when combined with NHTC’s blazing-fast fiber internet.
Discord: More than Just a Gaming Platform
Discord started as a place for gamers to chat and share gameplay, but it’s evolved into something much bigger. Today, it’s a vibrant community where people connect over shared interests, from gaming and sports to art and hobbies.
Discord is available on almost any device, from smartphones and tablets (both iOS and Android), as well as on gaming consoles like PlayStation and Xbox. PC gamers can also enjoy Discord on their laptops and computers.
How Discord Works
Discord uses a server-based system. Think of servers as online communities centered around specific games, interests, or topics. Within these servers are channels for text, voice, and video chat. Gamers can join public servers or create private ones with friends. Channels that allow voice chat are marked with a speaker icon, while those that are limited to texting use a hashtag symbol.
Unleashing the Power of Discord
- Community Building: Discord fosters a sense of belonging as gamers connect with like-minded people.
- Enhanced Gameplay: Share screens, strategize, and celebrate wins with friends in real-time.
- Creative Expression: Gamers can showcase their talents through art, music, and other creative outlets.
Keeping Your Child Safe
While Discord’s default privacy settings are not especially private, the app does offer privacy and safety settings to help protect your child. By adjusting these settings, you can control who your child interacts with and the content they see.
To adjust privacy settings, go to User Settings and select Privacy & Safety. Here, you can customize options like limiting your child’s activity data, which helps reduce their digital footprint on Discord.
Parents might want to restrict certain content on Discord. You can filter out servers with inappropriate language or content, and you can also prevent your child from receiving direct messages from strangers.
