    What I really need is realtime multi-party voice chat

    Do any of these support that?

    I mostly use discord for light coordination and online voice chat during games or activities.

      Steam’s built in voice chat replaced discord for my group of friends years ago. It was rough at first, but it has improved a lot and now we dont have issues anymore.

        Except when steam itself craps out for a while and you can’t even tell unless you keep the group chat/voice window open on 2nd screen.
        Still better than discord tho

      Technically, Signal, Rocket Chat, and Matrix all have multi-party voice chat built in. You probably won’t have a great time with it, and if you want video or screen sharing, you’ll have an even worse time.

        Honestly just voice chat is all, I used to play SC2 with some sketchy apps that could do it… but 2026 feels like easy stuff got much harder.
