No I meant an app that looks similar and contains most of the features (servers specifically) so it's easier for not tech savvy users to get into. Someone suggested Revolt but its privacy (as in sending the data to not privacy respecting third parties) is questionable so idk if I can consider it a good enough alternative
Something like Revolt could maybe be a replacement for discord
Lol
There is a project, but it's really early in it's development. It's called Cabal. Has a nice desktop client, looks kinda like Discord. It's p2p, so no server required. BUT AGAIN, VERY EARLY IN DEVELOPMENT.

Not something you should use, but look out for how the development is going.
There seem to be quite a few projects. It's slowing the development down. It would be better if everyone focused on one. But peer to peer is interesting. I'm wondering how much disk space it will use a day if I'm in a group with like 100k people though
