just like we had lemmygrad.ml as an alternative for Reddit, we need to have an alternative for discord. discord’s new policies have been supressing servers and members left and right. Now there are some options that I want to present here
Guilded: Basically very nice UI, it’s completely free most nitro features of discord are completely free on Guilded. it has got more features that discord doesn’t have the only issue is that it is gaming centric and majority communities are related to gaming
Revolt: Github open source like lemmy same features as discord, good UI, there are some features like that it lacks but upcoming and promising.
slack and matrix are trash don’t fall for it
If somehow discord server gets banned, you would be thanking me for this.
thank you for reading and upvoting
There is also a Matrix room/space for Lemmygrad specifically which is public: https://matrix.to/#/#internationale:matrix.org
Both of them are way too underutilized imo. As someone who only uses Matrix and XMPP anymore I feel like I’m missing out on most of the conversation since the majority seems to be on Shitcord.
