With Discord announcing age verification globally, people are searching for alternatives. But a Discord alternative on the open social web might just look structurally quite different.

Fluxer.app looks promising. It's still in very early dev, but according to the site:

These features are coming soon:

...

Opt-in E2EE messaging

E2EE calls

Federation

...

The public beta looks pretty good but it's currently very slow. There is a large refactor going on so I'm hoping for the best, but even in its current state it seems to support many of Discord's biggest features quite well.

Really? That's new, I signed up this morning and it just worked. They must be being hammered by people leaving Discord too

Well yes, it says: "To manage the influx of users during our public beta, we are throttling registrations...."
