I got distracted from my work so I made some Continuwuity propaganda. Continuwuity is a lightweights Matrix chat server that you can self-host pretty easily. Give it a try :3

It’s not really designed to be a Discord replacement. It’s a messaging app/protocol that can do voice/video calls. Discord is a passive state voice / video / text channel app that was designed to create spaces for different topics. Matrix has added a similar hierarchical feature as an option, but its not the same and I don’t think it was meant to be.
We mean, overall we need something to text (plus send files), call, video/screen share and bonus for emojis, stickers and gifs. We get that discord and matrix isn’t really the same thing but the end result and use case is :/ So it would be a replacement for us
pretty much Matrix’s entire point
also implemented in pretty much every server and client; I think even Element can send files
look into e.g. #matrixrtc:continuwuity.org — sable requires a setting to show the call button in non-DM rooms
unfortunately this is the only thing I’m not confident is supported
should be available with any im.ponies-compatible client such as sable
Yeah the video/screen share it’s important to us as we like to watch stuff with friends and need it to show clients of art work during calls. It’s like the 1 thing rn that’s stopping us
Screen share works, although some browsers don’t capture audio
Doesn’t Matrix do everything you just listed?
Not the screen share which is pretty important to us. Can’t get it to work 90% of the time.
