Matrix? I think you can setup text channels and also do voice/video/screen sharing in the channels as well if you’re using element, though I havn’t been able to convince my friends to jump ship yet, so don’t know how it compares to discord

They don’t seem to have 100% pass of the tests, but I might be missing something?

Would love to take the jump, but I think I’ll wait until they pass all tests

You should only need to have Java and then download the server and open the port if they want to play vanilla mc. If they want modded then idk.

You might also want to check this out, haven’t used it myself but it looks cool if you don’t like wasting server resources: https://github.com/timvisee/lazymc
