    Nice. Doesn’t cover video chat/screen share options, but this is a good rundown.

    If you don’t care about privacy or security AT ALL, there are some additional options like Guilded.

    TeamSpeak6 is also out, and is great for voice/video, but is missing the forum-like chat experience.

    Unfortunately, there are no drop-in replacements. All of them involve sacrificing functionality in some sense.

    Maybe the recent controversies will drive additional development.

      I mean if someone doesn’t care about privacy or security at all, will they even leave discord?

      Is Teamspeak6 out? Or is it in open beta for another year? Do they have mobile or browser versions to 6 yet? Last I checked no.

          It will - at some point - I hope. There are efforts being made currently to make the Livekit-based video chat available for the self-hostable container.

              Yeah things started moving visibly (across GitHub issues and PRs) recently. There was some weird silence for a couple weeks which made me worry. I hope they pull through.
