MODERATORS
Mumble + IRC or XMPP works well.
I was going to say: is IRC not still a thing?
Don't many of the IRC servers expose your IP address and have bots that store every chat message?
Some outdated ones do, but it is very easy to run your own modern IRC server that does none of that.
For a foss project irc logs of channels are important makes irc into google able knowledge. For privacy, use matrix and encryption.
is that a thing ? googleable IRC chat logs for FOSS projects ? I haven't seen any
How do you set this up? Do you use two seperate apps or are there apps that integrate both?
It's separate, but you can use Matterbridge to connect the chat if you really want.
Alternatively you can use Jitsi Meet, which can be integrated with Ergo and an IRC webclient like Convos, but that isn't a simple setup then anymore.
