So what is the likely self-hosted Discord alternative for folks wanting to host a chat/online community these days and not be at Discord's mercy whenever it chooses to alter the deal even further?

I don't think it's Matrix unless Element accessibility has improved significantly since I checked last, which was a few months ago.

Delta Chat might be interesting if they get their supergroups idea specced and merged, but even that would just be a simple single group whereas what I'd like is more like a Discord server or Matrix space.

I hate this so much. Been watching alternatives flounder with accessibility issues for years. Then the corporate incumbent does something shitty and blind folks are just stuck with it because it's the most accessible option even with its huge glaring flaws. See also Windows, GitHub, GSuite, etc. This has to stop.

@fastfinge @nolan @svenja To be fair the a11y of discord was sort of there, but also crappy. I never understood how people put up with it.
