      Perfect 1:1 drop in hassle free replacement with the exact same feature set? No, there isn’t.

      Viable alternatives that aren’t too bad to learn? There are many.

        fluxer is 95% a drop in. Its just dealing with stablity issues due to the massive influx of users.

          Oooh. Thanks for the tip! I just tested it and it’s great, other than being slow which is understandable. Is it internet searchable? Or a walled garden?

            I don’t know if any of them aren’t walled gardens. Everybody seems to be taking their design cues from Discord.

            It would be nice to have a setting making the server public or private, and then search engines could crawl public servers (such as tech support groups).

              Thanks for your response. It’s a shame this is a trend but perhaps fluxer will add that feature or it can be formed with one

        I agree, but one of my friends told me the above.
        Matrix is pretty good due to e2ee.
