In summary, Discord is now forced to ask the system for global keystroke permissions, whereas before it simply did as it pleased. Catalina and newer applications close the hole by requiring user consent for all applications. It was convenient, but also quite dangerous. In previous releases of macOS, applications could read global keystrokes whenever they wanted to without any consent from the user whatsoever. What this dialog is asking is for you to grant Discord global keystroke access, so functions like Push To Talk can function while Discord is in the background. This is done to mitigate the threat of programs acting as keyloggers and similar sorts of malware. In macOS Catalina and newer applications are normally allowed to see only keystrokes performed while the app in question is active. With the Desktop application, you can use this option from anywhere (from another application for example).If you choose "Deny" here, Discord will never again prompt you, and the Push To Talk feature will simply not work without giving you any errors or indication as to why it isn't working.
