I frankly have no idea why you would prefer it over Discord other than open source access. Revolt dissuades from self-hosting, is non-federating, has no stable business model and lacks in features. It is a prototype for a future where Discord catastrophically burns down.
official client is customisable and by default looks way better than discord, third party clients are allowed, it’s feels the opposite of corporate, doesn’t have AI, has its original features like multireplies and except for the pretty inferior voice chat that will undergo rewrite there aren’t really any I miss, I do quite well without super reactions.
as for now donations are sufficient, you always have an option to self-host and tbh if it was federated most people would be on the official server, it would be harder for normal people to join and moderation would be harder so I’m pretty ok with not having it there… not like discord has that
I wish revolt was more popular smh
They recently added display names while keeping the tags as a direct ‘fuck you’ to discord lol

To be fair, between Twitter and now Reddit, it’s not exactly a bad idea to have alts and backups lol.

Do you know if it’s possible to:
I don’t really use bots and stuff much, but there’s Revcord on github to bridge between discord and revolt
