The Switch, in comparison to many of its contemporaries, is pretty light when it comes to many non-game applications — certain services like Netflix are notoriously absent from the console, and it’s unclear when they would be added. However, one particular service, Discord, has shown a desire to appear on the system, saying in response to a tweet asking about it that they would “love to bring Discord to the switcht [sic],“ but that they need Nintendo’s blessing to make it happen.
We would love to bring Discord to the switcht! But we'd need Nintendo's blessing for that to happen first. Vote up the idea here and maybe it could be a thing someday:https://t.co/sHddT8z2Fn

Discord linked their request submission form in the tweet as well, suggesting that if enough people put in a word it could help push the process along. We have no idea if anything is going on behind the scenes yet, but hopefully the popular chat/call platform will end up on the console someday.
