    I think this one is needed to get it running with docker-compose
    https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted
    That pulls images from

      @enabl-ist Nice find, and as a fan of everything about Discord except their data-policing, I'm interested in this.

      I guess a potential alternative to Rocket Chat too as the current best of the bunch we're using from the Cloudron offering.

      Do you have access to send me an invite code to check it out?

        Just click the Join Public Beta button then the Continue button and it gives you one.

            @marcusquinn thanks, no I have not acces to send you an invite code. I just stumbled upon the project and thought it would be interesting for the Cloudron community.

              @enabl-ist can you update the top post with these relevant links for cloudron? It will get more votes that way.

                  @marcusquinn Yeah this looks really nice - self-hosted discord is much better than discord for sure
                  Would love to see this with federation of some kind (closer to matrix not ActivityPub)

                    They seem to not have true desktop apps yet, so cannot support global push-to-talk keys... Sadly, it's a must have IMO.

                      How does Revolt compare against Element, another Discord alternative:

                      https://element.io

                      Element is Free Software.

                        @loudlemur Element is not a discord alt - but rather federated instant messaging. But both share the same common goal of allowing messages between friends. Both look and work really well from what I've seen and element is already on cloudron

                            Its super basic rn and lack of apps makes it awful on mobile. Very promising though.

                              Also just a side note on this, it regularly freezes in the PWA and there is no noise to indicate you entered a voice chat or who joined. Good to follow for sure but IMHO nowhere near usable for anything but basic text chat.

                                There was a new release last month on March 4th.

                                Server seems to be a Rust app

                                Web App is nice
                                Desktop is electron based

                                Looking very professional considering it's college kids making it.

                                  @robi Oh absolutely. Just had a weird issue where it didn't let me confirm a new account. This is still very commendable. I know I wasn't doing stuff like this as a student lol

                                    Would be good to start testing this.
