Stupid question: why are they looking for a discord alternative, instead of a group chat/Slack alternative? What am I missing?

Because slack alternatives also have video and audio call integration (either with jitsi or something else) and are battle tested with companies.

Friday night and Sunday night I could not open discord. They seemed to have an outage based on down detector. I had already been toying the idea of switching to matrix but would rather have gamed than figure that out for my tech-normie friend.

Luckily steam voice chat is straightforward and good quality

SimpleXchat¹, Jami, JitsiMeet, Cwtch, and Jabber didn't make this comparison 😞

¹ Yes, I am aware of the controversies.

Be weary of Stoat. I hear they used AI "generated" code in their software and only quit it because they got caught.
