Pain fucking ass but deleted my Discord account. Sure wish had a decent alternative. I see a lot of suggestions just don't which to try? Any that work great with Linux Debian?
Matrix
I don't like element. It was too laggy. And I was having trouble with the other ones.
Me and my people are moving to stoat. They're having some growing pains right now, but I'm sure it'll smooth out.
Do the people you talk with use Signal?
Signal and Discord are two different types of messenger. Discord is more a hybrid of a forum and like Teamspeak, but with vidchat and screenshare as well as a lot of aesthetic options.
Only used it when used to game with my kids. So no one I know uses Signal.
