CLUSTER VOICE-COMMUNICATION-GAMING · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-11-25
Voice chat for gaming communities
This cluster consists of voice and text chat applications built for gaming communities, including proximity-based in-game communication and dedicated-server voice chat. The dated history shows an isolated entry in 2012, a cluster of entries from 2019 through 2022, and a recent set of entries in late 2025 and early 2026. Traction leaders by activity signal are discord-canary, discord-ptb, and gamevox-launcher-bin, though all currently report zero stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
