I wish more FOSS communities would use Matrix, Discord sucks so I barely use it anymore

    When Fluxer gets federation, I really think it will be a great drop-in for Discord. It's very familiar.

    Matrix really isn't a good replacement for Discord. I wish forums were still the thing though, I hate threads in my chat apps.

    Fluxer just finally finished their big refactor that brought their code to GitHub for public contribution and they released their revamped selfhosting experience

    Still. Not. Federated.

    It's on the roadmap, and it's a solo dev

    It’s on the roadmap

    Kindof like Helix plugin system, Forgejo federation, CoMaps live traffic, etc. I'd rather use something that works right now and not have to wait like 5 years

    Been working on deciding where to move to, not sure if I can get my people to come with but as it stands

    Fluxer - E2EE is iffy at the moment from what I've seen, federation not yet a thing

    Matrix - I don't know of a client that allows audio screenshares which is important when sites keep removing the watchparty features

    MOVIM is entirely text based as far as I can tell

    If you use Element web with a chrome-based browser you can share a tab playing a video from the same browser. I use Helium to connect to matrix and my Jellyfin server to stream movies regularly. Within the last few months they've added the ability to adjust stream volume as well.

    I assume E2EE is end to end encryption?

    Curious why you care that much. On discord it's all on their servers anyways, so it already doesn't matter.

    If you had to you could self host and set up e2ee for the connection if you wanted to.
