Most widely used in the gaming world, Discord has been favoured by gamers since its launch in 2015, championing voice chat rooms, and text-based threads. Since then, Discord has evolved, bringing more like-minded communities together. During the pandemic, in particular, the platform became a more commonplace form of communication, even forging itself as a key player in the creator economy. It's no wonder TikTok wants in.
TikTok teased its pending presence on Discord on Wednesday, with a tweet reading, "the all-new TikTok server coming soon".

At the time of writing, TikTok's Discord community has 1,264 members, which is modest by Discord standards but likely to increase.
"This server’s just like your For You feed: it’s made for you, some of its comments are spicy, and your parents have no idea what it is," TikTok's Discord page reads. It currently has five moderators from TikTok itself, and a set of rules that include no NSFW content and no purchasing crypto.

More recently, the app has reportedly been testing a desktop streaming software called TikTok Live Studio, which could let creators stream live gaming footage. Look out, Twitch.
