    If Stoat (formerly Revolt) can integrate screen sharing capabilities soon enough, they will be the closest experience to Discord. Even the UI is familiar, if you come from Discord.

      Apparently that’s already in the backend since december, they’re just getting their infrastructure up to snuff before they enable it

      I can’t even create an account on Stoat yet. New account confirmation emails take hours to arrive and by the time they do, they are already expired.

      This is not a discord alternative yet and not be for a long time most likely.

        They’re having issues with their email provider due to the hug of death effect, they did not expect to get so much traffic so fast

      I‘m surprised Stoat is gaining so much traction here. It‘s no open source and will likely go down the same path as Discord if given the chance.
