TBH both disc and slack have their downsides, disc more so, so I’m fine if they just take the best of all worlds.
But yeah, screensharing is the deciding factor for me. As much as all my friends hate discord, we use screensharing all the time (it’s just a bit jankier getting it working on Linux).
Yeah, I saw that element is using jitsi under the hood for its screensharing. If that makes for a seamless user experience, that’s great. It’s been like 10 years since I last tried Jitsi, but it was not smooth.

Its honestly really good now in my experience. Honestly wish people used it instead of Zoom.
Ooo I just found out element added support for drop-in/drop-out voice and video rooms. That’s the real killer feature they’ve been lacking I think. Will have to try it out.
