For-profit companies cannot be relied on for this kinda thing (for anything at all). TeamSpeak is good now, maybe, but there's nothing actually protecting it from turning to shit the very instant management changes.

True. However TS has been around for a very very long time and have a proven record of not shitting on users. The free server and client have remained free all this time.

That doesn't mean things will always be good though.

TS also has a straightforward charge for server hosting.
This is free on Discord, but we all know nothing is actually free.

I am much more inclined to trust TeamSpeak, but personally I'd rather move personal smaller groups to Matrix, and bigger public communities to Discourse or Lemmy where they are properly indexed and searchable.
