Comment on Discord's face scanning age checks 'start of a bigger shift'

Unfortunately there’s not really anything that comes close to Discord.

Revolt is the closest, as it’s open source and self-hostable but still lacks many of the features and isn’t federated.

Everyone keeps recommending Revolt but I tried it last week and it’s janky as hell and the voice chat just straight up didn’t work. This wasn’t just me, too. Our whole group tried it and gave up.

    I only used it once a while ago. What doesn’t it do that Discord does that you also need?

    Most everything. It’s also very complicated to use and slow as shit.

    Scan your system for running processes 😅
