  No VOIP? That’s the only reason I ever use discord, when my friends force me to so I can talk while we play games. Guess teamspeak is still king

    No video call or screen share either from what I can tell, which is uhhh pretty major to day the least. That said, it’s not like I need only use one platform at a time. I’ll probably get on that and start using it and hope that they add those things in the future. But yeah, I’m not sure if I would call it close to Discord right now.

    They have voice chat channels in Stoat, or are you wanting p2p calls?

      No just voice channels, I’m glad they have them but it was completely missing from their marketing on the website. Just says “text channels done right” and there isn’t a single lime about voice support

        Ah, I could see that being confusing.

        I will say compared to discord the voice channels sound rough and I’m not sure I remember that many options to customize the experience

    If you don’t care about audio on screenshare you could use matrix, that’s what I do.

    There’s rocketchat, too, which bills itself more corporately

  Anyone else not receiving the verification email? Doesn’t seem to work for me.

    I think it took a long time for me the first time. They seem way smaller than Discord, so I imagine they don’t have the fastest infrastructure. Also, I signed up with a non-gmail account and their verification email did make it through eventually.

  Wow! I had checked these guys out a long while ago. It seems they’ve gotten a fresh coat of paint. I should revisit it. Maybe convince my friends to switch…
