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

      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.

                          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.

                                I really like Riot. I don't think it does voice chat though.

                                    @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.
