Every few years we rediscover decentralized chat and I’m here for it.

Harmony is getting there.

i love stoat, free, open, can self host, just enough features compared to discord for it to be viable

still using discord since a lot of things i use depend on discord for many things, though. and if you haven't seen, there's stoat to discord and vice versa bridges.

Stoat doesn't have audio notifications. Makes it kinda doa for me

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

stoat has a lot of new platform jank, but remember discord was just as bad when it was new but we loved it anyway because it was better than everything else at the time. Personally I'm willing to sacrifice some convenience for the sake of privacy and security.

Agreed but audio notifications are pretty much the single most important thing I am looking for. I would actually love to use Stoat but for me it's IRC atm.

Are stoat and fluxer federated? Don't have time to watch the video right now.
