Discord Alternatives

  • Lobste.rs;
  • Tildes.

    • Beginning with a phased global rollout to new and existing users in early March, users may be required to engage in an age-verification process to change certain settings or access sensitive content. This includes age-restricted channels, servers, or commands and select message requests.

    Does Matrix have problems I'm not aware of as an alternative? Saw they have 115 million accounts compared to Discord's 500 million so its already well tested? Not a user of either service.

    Can you save all chat logs on Discord?

    [-] Beep@lemmus.org 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

    You can.

    But only CIA can export them.

    On serious note, here is a tool to do that.
