Mumble is another strong, open source, self-hosted option.

If only it didn’t looked like a 20 year old software.

Maybe it’s just me but I think the Mumble UI is way better than the Discord UI

I don’t know about the UX, but if you want peoples to use your app, it need to look nice.

I find the login page of discord intelorable, it has ugly EULA on it that I will never sign

Discord is also quite the resource hog. Trying to run the web version on weaker phones is a slog.

Yay mumble!

And I agree: it’s better. I think it’s faster and that, IMHO, is where the power is. It can look boring like a hammer as long as it’s intuitive … like a hammer.

Some of the best stuff in the world looks like it’s 20 years past a prime that isn’t, because they’re truly good eternal.

Especially on mobile.

It’s voice chat, you choose a server and then minimize to tray, you never have to look at it…
