"textContent": "submitted by ProdigalFrog to opensource\n37 points | 9 comments\nhttps://movim.eu/\n\nDirect link to the funding campaign to help accelerate the development of Discord-like features, such as servers with rooms/spaces, as well as drop-in voice channels.\n\nIt’s quite an impressive little app capable of:\n\n * Excellent text chats with file upload support, including solid optional encryption (OMEMO, based on Signal’s encryption but modified to be compatible with federation)\n * Group voice/video calls with screensharing (just implemented, must use a chromium based browser to screenshare an app’s audio at the moment)\n * A neat integrated blogging feature for communities & individuals\n * a fun built-in paint program to easily annotate documents or draw stuff into the chat\n * Full working and proven federation thanks to the XMPP back-end, which allows it to scale up reliably and easily self-host (XMPP is very lightweight).\n * Uses the AGPL license, ensuring that corpos won’t be able to take it over. It’ll be community-owned forever.\n\n\n\nIn message-mode, it looks fairly similar to Discord:\n\nThe dev also posted a preview of what the new spaces feature looks like in the development branch:\n\nUnlike Signal, Movim doesn’t require a phone number email to create an account. And since it runs right in the browser, it’s extremely quick to sign up and give it a test to see if it can meet your needs.\n\nAnd if a Discord-alternative built on a truly open and federated protocol is something you want, consider throwing the dev a donation, or contributing with code (if you have the skills and time) or helping improve the documentation! :D\n\nTo stay updated on its progress, the !xmpp@slrpnk.net community pretty reliably posts news about it.",
