Yes my friend, I'll be happy to give my 2¢ 🙂

There's another one in the FOSS world too, IIRC, and on the deprecated, legacy silo side a lot of discordant discordians, of their own accord, and suffering from discordance (oh, i can be a punster sometimes), have migrated in large waves, en masse, as their **communities** (I refuse to call them servers) moved from discord to "Guilded"

#Guilded is a much more lax, permissive, and welcoming platform and they've made it very attractive fur s lot of so-called 'influencers' and big gaming, streaming, and cosplay communities to jump ship, so to speak.

Other than that, it's the same exact model, with a prettier face, and we all know that's fleeting. There will come a time when, like any other proprietary platform that gets too big for its breeches, Guilded will forget that it's the users that are important, instead of merely a bother.

Anyway, I haven't looked at #FOSScord at all in sbout six months. The project lead of Revolt was actually over there, reluctantly digging their devs out of some problematic issues they were having here and there.

They had a really ambitious roadmap (including some form of federating between instances), an unrealistic timeline to achieving that, and still aren't ready for primetime - I'm rooting for them however 💫

Here's my **Community** over at Revolt, complete with invite code, even though it's open to the public:

I'm not there much. But enjoy. I've got some mods that take care of bad actors, but without someone there promoting them, why fun m during goes quiet after a while. I'm probably going to get more active there once I get a couple off other priorities out of the way over there next couple of months.

Anyway, it offers some pretty decent looking examples of what you can do, and it's pretty much on par with discord.

There's a lengthy blog buried, but you can find it, where the creator exiplains why he has no plans to incorporate federation, and it's easily self-hosted. I like it a lot, butt there discord look and feel never really impressed me that much in discord, so if you like discord, this should be a shoe in fur you're open source project because it's got all the bells and whistles and even bots, dinner if which can bridge to other networks too, skyhigh I've let my bots fall into a state of disrepair to some degree lolz.

Give it a whirl! It really is nice 👍
