I use the screen sharing feature on discord to watch movies with my friends but I would prefer a FOSS alternative. I’ve tried Element/Matrix with the Jitsi add on but it seems like you can’t share the audio using that and the app can be a bit buggy in general. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

    As far as I know Matrix is the best FOSS alternative to Discord right now. Maybe try using the coturn addon for voice instead of Jitsi. I’ve been able to share audio snippets just fine this way.

      I need to find a decent guide to Matrix, I was playing with it a couple of days ago and definitely found it confusing.

      What about Revolt? I honestly get kinda confused with Matrix… Revolt seems to be a lot more Discord like, without being confusing. Like, Matrix doesn’t really have the option for a small group chat with 1 channel, or DMs.
