Discord is an American instant messaging, and digiting distribution platform designed for creating communities. Screensharing is being rolled out by Discord to its mobile users. It is a smart move for increasing users. 

Screensharing means that you just share whatever you're watching with anyone in a voice channel on the screen of your mobile. You can watch anything from TikTok to Twitch in real-time with your friends from anywhere in the world while chatting. 

This feature is simply astounding. It has highlighted the importance of casual hangouts in this period of the pandemic when ease is taken away from everyday life and people are meeting virtually via video calling and telephony enabled apps. 

Features like this one can return a little bit of that back to social interaction, as it allows users to drop in and out whenever. One can screen share to a Discord voice channel and any of the friends can just join in whatever they feel like doing, be it Among Us or just scrolling through the camera roll.

This new feature is about to recreate the feeling of hanging out with our dearest friends as we did before the pandemic.
