XMPP is a standard and doesn't have mandated UIs.
If you want a voice chat, then Mumble. It's very narrow, just for games.

What did you end up going with?
None. There’s no true Discord alternative.
waits for matrix fanboys to still chime in
My client shouldn't be bugged when I enter a room with a long history, right? Right?
Couldn't decrypt message
Hey, they're fixing that. Soon. Really. Any day now. For reals!
(That's the #1 thing that makes Matrix utterly unusable for me: if there's more than like, 10 messages, it's a game of is-it-broken-or-is-it-just-crap.)
Tbf, they actually are. Element X and the sliding sync are ready I think. If the server and client both use it, I think you can use it today. Or maybe the whole matrix 2.0 where that's all integrated isn't pushed into main/master yet. Im any case, I read it was ready maybe a few weeks ago.
Element X is still missing a lot of features, "ready" is an exaggeration I feel
No Spaces support in particular is a dealbreaker for me
Agreed. Element X and sliding sync don't support sso yet, so I've been unable to try them :/
Once those are added I'll be excited to give them a shot.
I currently use matrix and element with many bridges as my sole chat interface and it's very slow. So I look forward to speed improvements.
Revolt: Voice chat is not stable. They do not accept new registrations.
That's news to me. Where do they not allow new accounts signing up????
Since Discord was blocked in Russia today, everyone went to revolt, which cannot deal with so many registrations for now
So you're saying revolt is about to have a shitton of russian users, which means it's about to become a pro-russian war hub. You know what they say about nazis. Allow one nazi into your bar, and he'll invite his friends. Soon enough, your bar isn't a bar with a few nazis in it. It's become a nazi bar.
Same concept, different facists.
Ah yes, because all Russians are Nazis apparently
Russians are now Nazis?
Someone needs to read more history, and out down the Book of Pejoratives
