So my friend group has been looking for alternatives for a while now that feel like discord, works on mobile and desktop, and has voice chat.
I use Signal but the UI is very different from Discord.
I've had very mixed experiences with Element + Matrix, Element keeps crashing on mobile, and while voice chat kinda exists in Element it's not been great imho.
I looked into hosting Rocket.chat, Zullip, and Mattermost but from what I recall voice + mobile were either missing or paywalled at a per-user price.
Any recommendations?
have you looked at mumble or teamspeak, seems they where the default for a bit before discord. Atleast for gaming.
I seem to recall Jitsi working pretty well.
Jitsi is great but the element integration felt clunky. Maybe I'll have to revisit it.
