      I think this one is needed to get it running with docker-compose

        @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.

            Looks like they have one that is Docker-Ready: https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted

              @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.

              I think this one is needed

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

                  Looks like development is progressing nicely:

                  • https://revolt.chat/publicbeta

                  Anyone looking at packaging?

                    @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

                            I think Mumble can do that?

                              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.

                                      Desktop apps for Linux, MacOS and Windows.
                                      Mobile app: rvmob
                                      Minecraft client
                                      TUI: CLI based client

                                      Anyone able to get it running?
