I don’t know what they’re even doing. TeamSpeak/Mumble is not a replacement for Discord. There’s no separate text channels in addition to the voice ones. It’s just a VOIP program. If you move from Discord to one of those you’re either in addition fundamentally changing your way of thinking or you’re in for disappointment.

For one there’s no “public communities” as with Discord. Here are the biggest servers from mumist.eu:

That may be the case, but in Ventrilo you can page someone “[][][][][][][][][]” and it will go “page from left square bracket right square bracket left square bracket right square bracket left square bracket right square bracket…” This is a major advantage

We’re setting up our own Matrix/Element CE and mulling over the non-technical folks’ fumbling trying to figure it out. Going to have to test a lot. Stoat is promising since it has a familiar UI, but we have a large amount of mobile-only friends.

Not even looking at the non-free stuff. This is the shove we needed to finally move off that type of crap.

Forgot about XMPP until reading earlier comments. Will have to put that on the list.

The topic of the thread is about users migrating away from Discord due to privacy concerns over their ID requirements. If this doesn’t apply to you, what is your purpose commenting? To tell us all that the thing in the OP isn’t actually happening?

Your position is that:

• this can’t happen,
• people can’t leave discord because people are on discord,
• it’s impossible to learn 3 applications,

Therefore nobody would replace Discord with Teamspeak and also use some other chat program (that’s 2 programs! which is nearly as impossible as learning 3 programs!).

You’re posting this opinion in a thread about users migrating to TeamSpeak and calling me the idiot?

That’s certainly an opinion.

Your a fucking delusional idiot.

‘Your’ is the possessive form of you.

You’re is the word you’re looking for, as it is a contraction of ‘you are’ as in ‘you are an idiot’.

I said that the other day and I got back “noone is going to use that windows XP lookin shit.”

XMPP can actually do everything, chat, group video calls, and even screen sharing with the Movim client. It’s a one-stop shop.

Just use fluxer. It literally does all that. It’s basically feature parity with discord.

Other then waiting on them to finish up the native mobile app.

I have seen the conversation around ditching discord come up a few times, but this more recent one was the first time seeing Movim and it seems to have more folks post about it. Is it newer then revolt, rocket, etc?

Older, actually. Its been around since 2010, and is built upon the XMPP protocol, which is from 1999.

Movim has only recently taken the direction of becoming a Discord replacement.

That makes sense. Thanks for the heads up!

One thing that worries me a little about fluxer is this:

Finally, we can offer commercial licences to companies that want to run Fluxer internally without being bound by the AGPLv3 copyleft terms. This is enabled via a contributor-friendly CLA, but it doesn’t create a separate “enterprise edition”. It’s still the same Fluxer software everyone else uses.

• https://blog.fluxer.app/how-i-built-fluxer-a-discord-like-chat-app/

They have a CLA on contributions. So while today Fluxer is licensed as AGPLv3, tomorrow they can pull the rug and change the license, just like everyone else has been doing.

True, Mumble does have text-to-speech, but no Microsoft Sam in a roflcopter that goes soisoisoisoisoisoi

Hey, just wanted to give you an update that the Fluxer dev actually agreed to remove the CLA!

That’s the thing, for me Discord replaced Slack. I never used the voice chat feature of Discord. I had family, friend group, interest group Slack servers to chat, all was eventually moved to Discord.

Meanwhile I still use Mumble for voice chat, Discord never replaced Mumble for me, it was a replacement for chat groups, which I previously used Slack for.

That’s interesting since you were already using slack, did you just switch due to network effect or are there additional features in discord?

You come off very unbecoming in that thread. Strange you advertise it.

For me, it wasn’t about the AI. It’s that early development of the game was all PvE play. PVP was something that was added at launch, and the game is tagged as PvE, along with PvP on steam. Stupid me thought there would be PvE only lobbies and I was clearly mistaken. I tried playing it, I put 100 hours in. The entire game was me grinding the easy map, to level up and craft/buy better guns, only to be shot on sight by someone and have everything I worked for taken. I would solo down bastions, leapers, and bombdiers to have someone run up and shoot me on site, without asking if I would share loot. (I would rather share than lose everything.) Events in the game also reward PvP play by awarding cred. People are making smurf accounts so they can end up in friendly matches to dominate people that don’t want to pvp. Enemy spawns are fucked up too. I’ve downed arc only for the corpses to despawn as I attempt to loot it. I’ve walked into clear areas, only to have bombadiers spawn on top of me out of nowhere. The worst part of the game is being dropped into a map/match after 10 minutes has elapsed, which means anything decent has already been looted and you’re more likely to run into people camping extraction points. They have a temp event running that rewards PvE cooperative play, and I’ve still gotten killed on site, although less frequently. After the event is over, I’ll probably uninstall the game again.
