Yes, I am aware how ironic it is to post this on Lemmy.

    For anyone interested: such alternatives are, for example, Fluxer (easier) or I think Stoat (more control as of now).

      Havent tried Fluxer, but Stoat has no screensharing and mobile cant voice chat. Plus they dont have a google-free version for Android, so I cant use the android mobile app.

      I recommend Game-Vox

        Clerotri is the google free client for android (on the Stoat/Revolt wiki they have a list of 3rd party clients), and it’s recommended if you’re using GrapheneOS.

        As for mobile voice chat, the strange thing is Clerotri has it while the official app doesn’t.

        Another comment mentioned the self-hosting requirement to screenshare (because of presumed costs)

          It’s fair that you can’t screenshare on the official one, it consume a lot of resources, i wonder if maybe doing P2P screenshare would help

      Fluxer looked like it was ai coded before the hype for it got it enough funding for a code refactor they’re doing right now. It’d be nice if it stayed around long term and became successful enough to be sustainable though.
