      This is them going into IPO mode.

      Matrix is a reasonable replacement.

          The comeback. I paid for a teamsorak server when I was a teen and used it extensively with friends for many years. As I got older I have only used discord a handful of times to talk to other people already on that platform. Discord has always sucked Imo, if it’s free you’re the product. That’s how it always has been.

          I hope it gets even more shit so people will leave the platform.

          Initial Public Offering.

          Its where a company offers stock for public sale, and gets listed on the stock market.

          Generally this corresponds with a company pushing hard to maximize profits over other metrics like user growth.

      We already have TeamSpeak/Ventrillo, and I think IRC is still a thing?

      Matrix for chatting, when we need voice chat we use ts3. Been using it for so long now, I don’t understand the problem why people dont use it

        You can integrate Jitsi to your Matrix too. If you have a client that supports it, you get both chat and voice in the same place.

          We need fast voice chat though, i play tournaments for cs2 and apex legends. Haven’t tested jitsi speed yet vs ts3 or mumble, which was the main reason we never used discord to start with

            I must admit I’ve never reamly benchmarked any voice chat application. One advantage Jitsi does have is the ability to do p2p calls, saving a couple dozen milliseconds of transfer time compared to going through the server. But how fast is the software itself? No clue.
