I've been following Stoat, their documentation states that self hosted voice channels don't work (I think their official server does though), and also you have to recompile their client software to hard code the link to your server.

That feels so much like niche coder hobbyist hurdles that I really doubt people en masse would make the switch by themselves.

Yeah I'm really hoping they just add a button in the client to connect to a custom server (like how Bitwarden works), as well as actually update the self hosting images and instructions. I've been keeping tabs on them for almost a year now, and still no progress on that front.

Oh yeesh. Sounds like it's got a good way to go before regular use becomes viable
