We who value #FLOSS, #openTech, #openProtocols can't fail to notice how dearly we need one another's support. So when I hear "join our Discord"* from a supposedly #freedomTech project my heart sinks. We should feed the proprietary silo? Deny our community the very freedom and joy of using open tech? Oppose our own work and values? How sad, how ridiculous. No! We must turn towards our #freedomTech cousins.

According to Mumble ( https://trymumble.com ) :
They have finally answered me. The support said there is some server issue and they are trying to fix it. Later this month or early april Mumble will go online again. I am hyped about creating an account there. πŸ€ͺ
