Matrix still lacks some signature fearures of discord that its users like, like one-click voice channels (I heard Element is experimenting with it with video) and guild/channel-level roles. role based access control is being planned for a long time, but it doesn’t really go forward unfortunately
I get that, its basically just going back to the model we had before with Teamspeak/Mumble/Ventrilo where the image is meant to be specifically about Federated alternatives/
It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work; when you go to church; when you pay your taxes.
Where is matrix?
Hidden inside the whatsapp->signal box in tiny faint font. I was wondering why there isn’t a big “Discord -> Matrix”

I mean, loops is missing a lot too. Matrix is quite there already.
Here Revolt is suggested as an alternative to Discord which looks quite similar.

But Revolt isn’t federated is it? It wouldn’t fit here any more than signal.
Yes, it isn’t federated, but you can host your own server for your community. That way you are independent of any central organization.

You’re right. It does not fit the initial picture.
Right in the Signal box, it says “Or Matrix/XMPP”. It’s super tiny for some reason.
