If Stoat (formerly Revolt) can integrate screen sharing capabilities soon enough, they will be the closest, user-friendly experience to Discord. Even the UI is familiar, if you come from Discord.
I‘m surprised Stoat is gaining so much traction here. It‘s no open source and will likely go down the same path as Discord if given the chance.
it is open source https://github.com/stoatchat/
I can't even create an account on Stoat yet. New account confirmation emails take hours to arrive and by the time they do, they are already expired.
This is not a discord alternative yet and not be for a long time most likely.
Apparently that's already in the backend since december, they're just getting their infrastructure up to snuff before they enable it
If they enable that and iron out the iOS app, it'd be a surefire migration for my whole crew.
