character limit, upload limit, community limit, no username per server unless you pay for a subscription? hard pass.

This won't become federated simply because of the fact you have to pay to unlock these features. If I made a fluxer server then I wouldn't charge my users for having a stupid animated gif avatar. I know discord is shit but this thing ain't the alternative.

So far I'm lovin matrix, bit it's not really discord alternative, I mean there is no screen sharing or Voice Call ig?

But because I'm into computers and Linux there are somany spaces filled with fellow penguins, I'm not sure if someone else can find rooms for their own hobbies though...ย 

I think with how Matrix is structured clients can support features that are not part of the core, including video calls. That said, it does mean you need to use one of the clients that support it (I think the most popular ones do), I think it's built on jitsi, and doesn't support screensharing (at least not with audio).

There is screen sharing and voice call on Matrix. Just depends ok the setup of the server and what client you use.
