https://stoat.chat/ Stoat is "discord but FOSS". Has apps for all platforms. Self-hostable.
https://zulip.com/ zulip is kind of like "discord but FOSS". Originally meant for work teams, it has topic-based conversation threads for asynchronous messaging. Self-hostable. Uses either jitsi meet, zoom or bigbluebutton protocols for calls (hoster's choice). Has apps for all platforms. Features: https://zulip.com/features/
https://chitchatter.im/ chitchatter is an ephemeral chat web app. It is lightweight and embeddable, doesn't require signing up, does video/audio calls and text/media chat. The web app is self-hostable. It's purely peer to peer, so it cannot store messages for asynchronous communication unless you leave the app running. You create a channel, share its URL (and password if it is private), and keep it open to catch messages sent to it.
https://docs.spacebar.chat/#what-is-spacebar Spacebar is a self-hosted alternative to discord's back-end. It aims to be a drop-in replacement that should be compatible with discord clients and bots that were only made with the discord API in mind, e.g. Dissent ( https://github.com/diamondburned/dissent ). It is explicitly compatible with the https://fermi.chat/ web client too, if others don't work as well, since it is still in development.
Boosts greatly encouraged, let's help people make an informed choice!

Oof@spycrab @konstruct what does that mean

Also! Rumor has it Stoat is interested in federating !
@czwolf it's not in the roadmap *for now* but they feel implementing polyproto would be interesting : https://developers.stoat.chat/faq#:~:text=However,stable

Oof@spycrab matrix is a very obtuse and unstable protocol

#FOSS #Discord #ageverification #privacy #boycottStout gives me bad vibes.
Can't justify them, but I got the same feeling about Proton mail before it was eventually revealed to be indeed a honeypot.

#FOSS #Discord #ageverification #privacy #boycott@konstruct@woof.tech So in general I have been having a very good time with zulip. One thing that's worth mentioning is that it includes some nasty LLM gunk. A friend of mine put together a patch to remove this, but that's only useful if you're admining your own server.

#FOSS #Discord #ageverification #privacy #boycott@konstruct a good overview. For an informed choice, maybe clearly state that stoat does not do voice chat (as far as I can tell, they don't mention it once), which at least to me would be implied with “discord but FOSS”.
Spacebar sounds very interesting. -

@olivia thanks! I'm glad it's used and tinkered with like this already

@konstruct ah, good to know, did not know that, only went by current feature set. I hope they do it soon…

#FOSS #Discord #ageverification #privacy #boycott@konstruct Do any of these support dedicated voice chat channels? Anything without is not a proper alternative and will only lead to disappointed people.
