- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

We need something like what Lemmy is to Reddir, except for discord. A decentralized application with multiple instances that users can join.
I have a discord server of about ~1K members, and would love to spin up a docker container to host my own instance that users can join. Chat, voice/ video calls, video streaming, etc. I'd love to support a FOSS project like this. Maybe even have E2E while we're at it!
Good old Teamspeak. Everyone can host his own server.
