@neko It's the closest thing to Discord without being Discord.

@xianc78 i'd rather use discord then this piece of shit sometimes and this is coming from someone with a huge free software boner.
@coin @xianc78 I think I heard of it and know what you are talking about, but it's heavily centralized which I don't really like.
@coin @xianc78 er, s/heavily//, but it's still hard to work with open source centralization (unlike IRC of course)
If by centralized you mean not talking to other server. That might be true, but it's not like Discord's any better.
@coin @xianc78 It would be kind of annoying to have multiple "discords" with different sessions. that's why i'm worried. I think IRC handles this much better by not "accounts"
@coin @xianc78 -so a single client can connect to multiple servers and work on it's own. AFAIK the discord clone is only going to support one client per server
I'm with you. I prefer the IRC way. But for some normalfag who likes the look and feel of Discord. Having a FOSS version of it with all the same APIs and features. They'll like it. The important thing is to give Discord less control.
@coin @xianc78 I get this will be good for normies, but it's just not for me and what I'm looking for.

If I didn't have a choice then I suppose I would roll that out.

@coin @neko Just create a FOSS XMPP client with a similar UI to Discord.

@xianc78 @coin @neko
There's one foss alternative to Discord called Revolt. The project has no plans to ever make it federate, though
There's revolt and there's fosscord, two different projects.
@neko @coin @xianc78 The Matrix server being written in Python seems to be one of its major sins. It's incomprehensible that you need multiple gigs of memory to run a *chat server*. It's a software turd.
@capitalone @coin @xianc78 God, If I felt like I was in the mood I could point out hundreds of flaws.

I'm writing an alternative to matrix, but I'm not gonna shill it because I haven't worked on it in a while, but I've been meaning to pick it up once I get some ratFE shit done
@neko @coin @capitalone @xianc78 when you say an alternative to matrix, you're referring to a new protocol or an alternative to synapse?
@sneeden @coin @capitalone @xianc78 I'm referring to this: https://git.nekobit.net/Chatellite.git/

It's a new protocol entirely, needs some work though, some parts are implemented
