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.

I mean Stoat and Root just do not have that problem. They look like Discord.

All that we need is that but federated.

Also Matrix lacks key Discord-like features in terms of voice chat, screen sharing etc.

Can you explain which features are missing for you?

[–] Skavau@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No audio/screen sharing, incredibly basic community or "space" customisation tools. No roles.

Audio/screensharing: But that’s just not true? Matrix has perfect voice and screen sharing. We tried it a while ago, and it worked better than, if not as good as discord.
