I don’t really get what you mean. These are clients that connect to a S3 storage.

There are many options.

I have been looking into this for other reasons: https://codeberg.org/shroff/phylum but it might do the trick for you.

Or this one: https://www.filestash.app/

The mislabled all feed isn’t actually an all feed, but just posts from communities that you, or someone else on your instance has subscribed to.

Or maybe: https://gitlab.com/yaal/canaille

Not only that, but if you run the server in your home, you get 100% efficient electrical heating as a side effect.

Points at the general political situation in the US…

I think you will be back at Ipfire soon. OPNsense is a confusing mess and while IPfire certainly has its issues, at least it is easy to understand and it does what it is supposed to.

For now you can use XMPP with the Slidge Signal gateway. At some point there will be an issue with Signal due to their centralized servers in the US and then you will be happy to not depend on it so much.

XMPP server (Prosody) that can also act as a Unified Push distributor.

That would be nice, yes.

Threema sadly blocks api access behind a paywall and community interest isn’t high enough to have resulted in a workaround using the regular client access.

As for the main request, it is probably a bad idea to move to messengers as the primary communication tool. I would rather suggest to look into a tool like Loomio that has nice notification options to link the decision making process to various chat apps.

Thanks for sharing this!

That you think Gajim looks like it was build in 2001 tells me you haven’t used XMPP in quite a while 😅

The Signal foundation also controls the ends, as they control the official clients and can push encryption breaking updates to end user devices; in cooperation with Google/Apple even to selected devices of individual people which makes this nearly impossible to detect.

Well, I think XMPP or Snikket is worth a try and definitely more reliable than Matrix, but you might also want to look at DeltaChat.

Mumble is nice, but it hasn’t changed much since the time people explicitly moved away from it to Discord, so why would they go back it it now?

Yes, but it isn’t a Discord replacement, but rather a WhatsApp replacement.

https://movim.eu/ is xmpp based and might be more suitable as a Discord replacement, but to be honest it isn’t quite there yet if you are looking mainly for a voice chat app.

Last time I tried they also worked mostly with Akkoma (which is the nicer software).

No, but I am looking forward to try Lepton on my Linux phone.

Me opens link expecting vibe-coded slop… and indeed it seems to be vibe-coded slop 🤷
