Suggestion - Collaborative Whiteboard Use (New streaming options for collaboration)

fuzzyslug

An option to stream a whiteboard, either client or discord provided that users in a voice channel can all collaborate on and draw/use text on. Whether it be doing homework, working on problem solving equations or just being creative with art! Discord is your place to talk! So why not allow users who have a mouse, or, even better; a graphical tablet for drawing, the ability to collaborate with friends and co-workers within their servers! It can be complex, and admins of the server can give permissions to certain groups/users the ability to use certain elements like Text/Insert Images/Drawing capabilities but that of course would be if the whiteboard was discord-provided instead of clients having the option to stream their own client side whiteboard. Either way, a collaborative whiteboard design would definitely improve discord's motto as "Your place to talk"!

    I distinctly remember MSN Messenger having a surprisingly capable drawing tool baked into its chat client, and I had many doodle-conversations with friends in the time I used it. It seems like a more relevant time than ever to spring for that kind of collaborative diagramming potential! There is precedent, and I would love to see this robust chat platform flourish in that way.

    An integrated whiteboard would be amazing, particularly for running D&D or other games that involve potential drawing.

    It will also be helpful for all the audience from (education) background

    Many university students (me included) are turning to Discord rather than GroupMe because it is far more intuitive. I do understand the apprehension of adding a whiteboard feature, though. The developers might feel that adding it would make Discord more of a professional meeting application than a place for gamers to link up. That said, Discord's nesting interface for servers makes switching back and forth between channels and V/C easy. It's a one stop shop for all the class study sessions without having to join a whole new server or creating a zoom meeting room. You guys have already mastered screenshare, so adding a whiteboard feature is the natural next step. Honestly, the less applications I have to keep track of the better it is. And I'm willing to bet that other gamers/students/professionals feel the same way. What I'm really saying is, PLEASE SAVE US FROM ZOOM! <3
