Mumble is super popular with EVE Online players still, no? Because of the support for a large number of users in a single room

I remember moving to mumble from teams peak because it allowed pretty cool levels of configuration.

Back in the late 00s and early 00s I was doing world of warcraft raiding. I had the server setup to have one key for main raid and another to talk to only officers. Quite useful especially in bigger raids.

Also as I recall for any remotely large ts server you needed to pay. The self hosted one was always gimped. Mumble you could self host with no limits.

Yep, Mumble is the most common, and there are still a couple groups that use Teamspeak.

Discord caps at 100 people in a call while I've seen good Mumble servers handle over 800.

For a group our size (we regularly have over 800 people on our mumble, peak is somewhere around the 1.3k mark if I remember correctly), it would also be very cost prohibitive to use TS

Can confirm. Goonswarm still needs Mumble because we have thousands of players that need to listen to the weekly fireside.
