However, you might find selecting a different server region improves the quality of voice chats, especially if you\u2019re chatting with people in other regions.<\/p>\n<p>To change your server region, you have to be a server administrator (or owner) on your own Discord server. Everyone on the same server uses the server-set region for communication.
