God, I just wish they'd add a fucking Push to Talk option to a client... Any client

The replacement is matrix.

They truly have zero clue how users actually use their software. Not a single person is going to use this just like every other stupid gimmick feature they've added in the past and then promptly removed.

It is open source. But from what I can tell the accounts are largely still hosted centrally, and it isnt federated in any way, which isn't great. Anybody can host an instance or server.
So ultimately it looks like a massive step up from Discord, with some small issues here and there.

Edit: From the linked FAQ actually
Does Revolt have federation
As of right now, Revolt does not feature any federation and it is not in our feature roadmap.
However, this does not necessarily mean federation is off the table, possible avenues are:
- Implement our own federation protocol
- Implement a promising up and coming federation protocol, polyproto
- Implement the Matrix protocol (unlikely, obtuse and unstable)
- Implement the XMPP protocol (battle-tested and stable)
Any federation that is implemented MUST exercise caution in:
- Preventing spam and abuse: moderators should be able to block malicious actors
- Protecting user data: users should be able to redact all of their information and messages
-
Yikes, hope matrix really improves soon.

schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 18:52 zuletzt editiert vonNot really. The network is currently undergoing massive attacks of spammers who flood people's servers, rooms and dms with child porn and videos of animals being tortured. Maintaining a public matrix room or homeserver is a nightmare and the Matrix foundation has only now come up with a solution. But these servers are slow to release and many people have been left with no choice but to leave Matrix all together. Discord is a shithole but we need to make sure people are aware that the alternatives have their own set of issues too

schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 19:01 zuletzt editiert vonNot had any spammers in my server. To handle that sort of stuff on discord I have a bot that removes messages based on regexs I’ve set and restrict new members from media,urls, etc til they get their first 10 posts in the server.

schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 19:14 zuletzt editiert vonIt doesn't.
It has features for video/voice calling - E.g. Background blurring and stuff like that. It just lacks the stuff that would make it usable for gaming.
-
I admittedly haven't looked very hard for an alternative. But I fully expect to be forced to move elsewhere in the next year or two due to their increasingly belligerent chasing of profits.
schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 19:26 zuletzt editiert vonIt feels like literally the entire open source and games communities are on discord. Will they move too? I care about that even more than my DMs.

Users on reddit and lemmy always seem to think ad-based stuff is going to fail, and then it turns out people in the real world are depressingly accepting of ads. I would bet that this program is more likely to be expanded than canceled.

I warned my friends that Discord is looking to go public. Just wait, it's going to get a lot worse.
schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 19:34 zuletzt editiert vonI don't know if you saw the news last month but Discord just replaced a founder with a former Activision-Blizzard exec as CEO.

How do I bot this so I don't see the ads and get free nitro so ads are removed?
schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 19:45 zuletzt editiert vonNo need, use discord canary.

I have the "touch grass" one from April Fool's day. It's pretty funny.
I paid $30 for a year of Nitro basic. I don't think I'll do it again. All the actually useful features for me (longer messages and bigger uploads) are behind the more expensive one, and it's not worth it.
schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 21:05 zuletzt editiert vonThe only feature I would care about with nitro is using emojis everywhere but that feature isn't worth any amount of money let alone whatever discord is charging for it

I told my sister she can use an adblock to block ads while she's browsing. She said "why would i want to do that, ads show me what to buy" she loves personalised ads and the idea that all her interests are being track so she can be served relevant ads.
schrieb am 29. Mai 2025, 21:08 zuletzt editiert vonI'm obsessed with this xkcd because it eloquently explains something I've been trying to explain to my techs (I'm a director of IT) and my more techy friends.
Its not that most people like the ads (although personalized ads are really nice), it's that most people legitimately don't give a shit. Nobody really cares that PC gaming is "better", or Linux is "better", or building your own PC is "better" except the turbo nerds like us (and yes, im including you kind reader as you are on Lemmy)
