Online RPG and Dice

Hello Everyone !!
Happy Easter or Happy Long Weekend!! And sweet chocolate thoughts to the ones who work!!!

I have ONE question today and it has been bothering me for a while now and I can’t find an efficient way to find the answer.
I am in the process of exploring the rules of online role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. I have never played the non virtual version nor do I intend to play any of the versions (online or not). I just want to understand one piece of information:

What happens to the dice, and the outcome of actions usually based on the result of the rolling dice when RPG are played online?

Everywhere I look, it is like everybody knows, or at least, you have to engage into playing to find this out. And I don’t have time for that (register, choosing a character, learn all about it, abilities, languages, spells, etc., learn about the other characters at least a little, join a community, explore the territory and go on quest… -- Aren’t you already tired just to read all that?)

So, once again the question: What takes on the role of the dice in online D&D role-playing games? If you have a reference that could help me in finding the answer, it would be much appreciated!!!

Lots of thanking hugs in advance!

HUGS!!! ;) :)
