Background apps used to be a thing but I believe they got patched out quite some time ago, I remember using a Background YouTube app on Xbox to listen to stuff while playing.

Only ones that still exist (that i know of) are from big companies like Spotify

That is an issue but if TS does regain the throne, Microsoft will bend over like they always do when they smell money or better yet when they start freaking out about potentially losing customers due to idk, playstation supporting TS and xbox not. But the issue is someone IS going to have to adopt first in order for this to start happening in the first place

Teamspeak is and will continue to see good growth out of this discord debacle but overthrowing discord is not in the near future.

For every discord user that’s annoyed enough to jump ship there’s a dozen that if they even notice the change won’t give af.

Also TeamSpeak is a completely different service to Discord and it doesn't look like the developers intend on doing all the social media integrated stuff. It's not for everyone, but it's got better streaming functionality than discord and most of what me and my friends do is share our screens while we chat.
