Well, I hope that Revolt/Stoat picks up most people.

did you tried it, what is the experience like?

Honestly, it's almost a drop-in replacement as far as UX is concerned. The challenge is the lack of existing communities, which could be overcome if a whole community joined.

the self hosted version is a bit broken right now, I hope they fix it, but I tried last night and couldn't get voice to work. Really want an alternative to discord

no pressure to the stoat team but I hope they put focus on the selfhosting part

[–] AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)
