Side note, is there there a good open source alternative to Discord in terms of it's exact functionality? (And I don't mean as a forum alternative, but voice comms and streaming). After their app update, I'm kind of annoyed with them. Yet, my community is rather dependent on them despite their enshittification.

We got sucked in because you could simply link it to randos on MMOs and if they didn't want to download an app, could still have voice comms in browser. Before that, we had ventrillo, mumble, etc, but nothing was quite as easy access for randos. But man, they kind of suck lately so... hrm. :/

Rocket.Chat and Matrix come to mind. The latter's element client (the default) even looks extremely Discord-ish.
