I hate to say it, but my band uses Discord for our communications. We have channels for each song we're working on, channels for both local and touring shows, and channels for general chat/goofing around.
Any alternative apps that won't require us to show our faces, that we could maybe set up in the same way? I ain't gonna let them have my face just so I can talk to those 3 goobers.
https://stoat.chat/ stoat is a discord clone
Seems like not submitting will just limit "age-restricted content", and if truly forced you can probably just upload any image from the internet?
Telegram unironically may be the easiest, unironic since you probably won't see it recommended online, but it has channels, no need to self-Host, everyone can access even without having an account
Rock on, ty!
Are you familiar with Matrix and its clients like Element?
Yes but not enough to set up my own instance. I could probably dump that task on our guitarist tho
If you're just doing band stuff just making a matrix space and then adding some matrix channels to it should be good enough through matrix.org.
Yeah, this sucks. Discord has been a great tool as a slow chat room for a group of irl friends
Make sure to backup your stuff now.
you can use groups in proton mail
Google groups?
Will look into it, thanks!
