Community Push Onto Discord

[Sally]

Also guess what doesn't have these problems? Mumble.

Revolt is the one that some of us in K'Hara are keeping an eye on for when Discord becomes too dogshit.

Heard of it a while ago, voice chat (and pretty much everything in-between) is still half-baked and likely will follow the same fate Matrix followed. Plus they only document how to deploy this through Docker, which is not great in terms of freedom. Ever since I first heard about this the whole project had a strong stench of corporate culture, which means it's bound to be proprietary by spirit rather than letter. I've also had a few convos with the people involved and they don't seem to care much about secure and private communication, go figure.

There's been something called Jabber for a long while for plain text communication, unlike Revolt this one does offer end-to-end encryption, there's multiple server and client implementations and there's plenty of documentation on how to host these even on a Raspberry Pi, think of it as email, but with XMPP rather than POP3/SMTP/IMAP.
