        Fosscord changed to “spacebar” a while back. If you want a more Discord-like experience, try the Cinny or Comet Matrix client. And on mobile the SchildiNext Chat client. Although I really can’t recommend Matrix as a replacement at all.

          I just want an experience my friends aren’t too stumped by. I’ll give them a look! Thank you!

            Matrix authentication process is confusing and annoying. If your friends aren’t technical, they’re going to have a bad time.

              Ye, it is. I liked it but I don’t think many will. A non-paranoid mode or service for matrix would be nice

        I assume that one was a joke, Ventrilo looks very out of date

        https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventrilo

        Revolt is nice though. Once they finish upgrading the app, it would be an easy switch

        I didn’t know about Fosscord (now called Spacebar it seems), it looks cool https://github.com/spacebarchat

      “Get off vent, or I’ll have you bent.”

      I wish those stupid videos weren’t the first thing my brain goes for when I see the word “Ventrilo.”
