Any good self-hosted discord alternatives?

Why not just use Discord? Most of the Slack clones really don't do voice chat channels like Discord does.

So, why don't you reword your question and post what you are actually wanting to implement?
I don't care about the video portion or "calls". I just want audio in a channel where everyone in that channel can hear me.

Just curious what is out there. I try to assess the stuff I use every now and then. Never know what you are missing out on

Ah got it. It's not a project just a question. Sorry. Rocket.Chat does Jitsi Meet. Which is actually really nice, you can also host an instance on your own and tie them together. It's not as easy as Discord's voice channels though.

I'll try it again and see where I get. Thanks

I did it last fall, and found I could not secure the jitsi instance in any reasonable fashion.

I don't doubt that. I didn't look closely but Jistsi runs without encryption. Or do you mean only letting people from your server join it?

I don't know if it supports voice, but Mattermost is a direct Slack competitor that is OSS and has a free community version.

Jitsi runs with SSL just fine. Yes I meant control of room creation, etc.

mumble
https://www.mumble.info/Been a couple of years since I used Mumble with P99 Everquest. I wasn't the administrator of it, but from the user's perspective it didn't seem as stable as Discord.

@dbeato Yeah rocket chat has the same thing, but it doesn't function the same way as Discord. It's useful though in general

Hi, I might be a little late but specifically for the self-hosted, telegram is there. And for basic functionalities, there are Element, TeamSpeak 3, Overtone, Steam Chat, & Tox.

Telegram isn't self hosted, though.
