I ditched Discord a few weeks ago. I moved to Matrix!

Not to be discouraging, but i managed to quit discord for a few months, but i returned again, turns out many projects, even open source, use discord for discussion only

So why not encourage them to move to the Matrix?

Voice channels work perfectly! I'm waiting for screen sharing.

It's already implemented 😎

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wow, that was fast! What else is still missing ?

Push to talk or voice activation would be good

I also quit Discord 2 weeks ago when my account was disabled for alleged self-botting the second time. Self-botting means using a script to automate your user account. I never did that.

Matrix is great, reminds me of a more secure discord. At least this one can be bothered to even try implementing end to end encryption
