Too many UDP Ports, can't use in workplace

Demanding access to 15000 UDP ports to enable Voice and Video communication is simply wrong.

My school division (workplace) recently experienced a hack. Immediately they closed everything down. Now, as the system is being turned back on, certain things are being kept closed like UDP ports. So when I asked them to open up 15000 UDP ports for Discord after getting support from you, that was a HARD pass.

Demanding 15000 UDP ports be opened up is a security risk and nightmare. Discord needs to update its infrastructure to only need a few UDP ports, like Microsoft Teams, ZOOM, and Google Meets (none of them ask for any more than 10 ports, some as few as 4).

I love Discord. It has had a drastic improvement on my school-based communication. But unless the Voice and Video features are changed to be more secure, I see Discord's future being quite limited in any other market than the niche gaming market. And I certainly won't be buying Nitro anytime soon unless that is changed.

We have the same issue at my workplace. We are using Discord as a working platform, but experienced that we cannot use the voice chat nor the video chat function.

We look forward to seeing and update that makes it possible to open fewer ports to make Discord works properly.
