I'm trying to get away from corporate owned software and support FOSS stuff.

Normally if I wanted to play a game online I would use a discord server and some kind of vtt. Since discord is not looking great rn, where would you guys recommend playing?

Any vtt recs are good too but I don't strictly need one. A way to chat and roll dice is essential though

The foundry specs are so low you can probably use a toaster for the hosting. The client (web browser) uses graphics for the tabletop so the requirements are a bit higher, but still every device currently available will be able to run it I'm pretty sure.

The main difficult requirement is the networking, whereever you host it will need an open port for people to connect to. I don't know how hard that will be for you.

Don't know much about the Matrix stuff, I've just seen it before.
