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

did you tried it, what is the experience like?

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 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)
