Still better than Discord, I guess
Actually, IIRC they did some stuff in plain text. Best case scenario they are the same, it’s just that these corsairs work for a different crown.
Right now, for FOSS projects the best alternative to Discord seems to be Fluxer (or XMPP if you don’t need voice channels). Best alternative to WhatsApp / Telegram looks to be XMPP.
However, there are more popular alternatives to those, however they come with more privacy concerns.
Discord/Slack:
Matrix is more popular among FOSS projects that chose a FOSS messaging platform. Leaks metadata.
WhatsApp / Telegram
Signal
Centralized. Leaks metadata.
Why fluxer rather than stoat?
