You're viewing a single thread.
I like this. I hope it starts conversations. Does anyone know if there are good alternatives to Discord?
Matrix. Seems to be the hottest thing for group chats. Also what a lot of open source projects that used IRC before are switching to (or, if not switching, are providing a bridge for).
Revolt is the way.
TeamSpeak is doing an overhaul to be similar to Discord. You can self host.
oh cool!
IRC?
IRC isn't really a replacement for Discord given that discord replaced irc for most people. Discord does a lot more than irc.
Fair point
@M154nthr0p3 @malcriadalala that is a nice one. Or #xmpp ;-)
Mumble + Element (Matrix)
revolt.chat
guilded could be consider one but really matrix and revolt are the privacy ones
yo, fuck discord, this is by far the most important one to emulate for me.
Zulip or Revolt
Yes, there is Matrix
There are a few that I can't recall off the top of my head
