Discord defends itself against efforts to stop piracy on its platform by saying no to more invasive data collection. Even though Discord isn’t exactly known for privacy, this is a great move for its users. What are your thoughts?

What's a good alternative that allows easy instant message, voice and video calls, and makes it easy to group my friends by game?

Matrix?

I only put ? Because I don't know what you mean of grouping your friends by game.

Like a server/channel where everyone in it is both your friend and a player of that game or a contact group that manage so you can see who is that.

There really isn't one, that's why Discord is so widely used.

I have been using revolt, going to setup my own server once I get better lol, last 3 times have been a cluster fuck to get it working. I got mattermost working the first try but it's a slack replacement not discord.

I get that they have different target user base, but honestly, what’s the difference?

[-] femtech@midwest.social 3 points 19 hours ago

Roles and permissions. Slack and mattermost is just allowed and disallowed to each channel.

Steam group chat? It's structured in the same way.

[-] Halosheep@lemm.ee 3 points 19 hours ago

You can create channels for people to join with Steam?

[-] Voyajer@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

Yeah, if you open the friends window on the bottom it should have a group chats bar with a button to create a server and then it works like discord where you can add additional text and voice channels
