Does it support voice yet? Seemed to be very unclear to me, and that’s 90% of what I use discord for

I agree. I think the average person just wants Roomy (or Matrix) to do what Discord already does. Voice. Video. Desktop streaming. All this haggling about protocols and decentralization don’t matter, but that’s what the article (and the app?) seem most focused on.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this wasn’t aimed for the average user, but unfortunately that means greatly diminished chances of success.

I really hope the project doesn’t end up being basically Matrix again.We already have a nerdy group chat app that doesn’t really work well as a Discord replacement. We don’t need two.

Not to mention the other two discord clones I can remember off the top of my head. Guilded (Owned by Roblox IIRC?) and
RevoltStoat, which I never hear anyone talk about, especially after their name change.
