It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?

        It’s missing voice channels.

        I didn’t know about Revolt. It sounds awesome and does indeed look like a Discord clone, but while you can self host it, instances can’t communicate with each other. The devs of Revolt actually recommend NOT to self host.

        Signed up for Revolt, but still waiting for the email confirmation…

      mumble does incredible VOIP. super minimal, pretty trivial to set up, and just works:tm: plus it has a lot of old school cool features since it’s been around the game for decades. It’s like discord but if it were old and cool.

      Matrix i hear a lot of good things about, specifically the interoperability of it. That’s pretty slick. One of these days i will get around to setting it up. Revolt exists, it’s a discord clone, it can be self hosted, it’s pretty fresh. Cool if you liked the 2015 era of discord i suppose.

      I’ve used mirotalk for p2p screensharing, both the p2p and sfu version seem to be alright, the p2p version is significantly more performant in my experience though.
