    You do not need to install app to use Discord, it is just more convenient to some.

    This is the first time I've ever heard of "DigiCert" so I'm researching it now.

    Does DigiCert offer a kind of guarantee that the app is 100% safe?

    I know it's possible to join a Discord group by using a URL and do voice chat this way, but this bring more security risks at all compared to installing the Discord app for Windows 10?

    Both work entirely the same, in fact, I could say that, depending your browser, Is safer or equal, because Discord seems to use the Chromium engine to work...

    Your continued support is much appreciated!

    I've decided to install Discord on my Windows 10 Pro PC.

    Are there any precautions I can take when I install it to maintain my privacy?

    Discord Voice App: Is It Safe?

    Not at all, Discord doesn't need any extra permissions or elevations so, is pretty much safe to run and go. I just would reccomend disabling getting DM's from server members (In case you join any) so you don't get messages from people you don't want to...

    Other than that, have fun!

    Thanks so much for your continued support.

    What do you mean by DM?

    Does anyone else have experience with Discord?

    I've now installed Discord to my Windows 10 PC, but I'm really worried about how Discord wants to connect to my Skype and other apps...

    I'm just really worried about my privacy... *Sad

    You dont need that. It just wants to make it easy for you to find contacts but its optional.
