So, I want to slowly start moving towards better platforms that are from eu but I have issue. I don’t know which discord alternative is the best. I only know matrix and revolt. Would someone help me or give me their thoughts?

The problem with Discord, and most messaging/communication applications isn't their usability, but the reach and adoption rate....

Unfortunately you're not going to move normies away from discord until discord screws up.

I know, that’s why I am staring to move away slowly away from it

@igiIq Matrix would be another option. Fully encrypted too...

[–] igiIq@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I know, but I can’t decide if I should be using it or revolt

[–] rraggl@mastodon.nl 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

@igiIq Looks to me like you have to decide which you find more important:
Security / Privacy / decentralisation (Matrix) or
ease-of-use, probably a larger pool of users and nicer looks (Revolt)

From what I know some servers are on matrix but they aren’t on revolt. I will use both then for now. But if I will get more information on both of them then I will probably make a decision

Revolt

Github link because their website defaults to the Microsoft Store...

Edit: going through the installation process it calls email 'outlook'. I'm alarmed by how Microsoft aligned it appears to be.

Cool , never heard of Revolt and it is a UK based company .. Going to move over from discord right now

[–] igiIq@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, I forgot to add it but I know about it

[–] igiIq@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago
