    Mumble still exists and isn’t proprietary…

      I still can’t make the server run on Linux for some reason, seems like everything network related (Zerotier, Xlink and Mumble server) that I use for gaming just doesn’t work for me on Linux.
      It’s weird because Jellyfin worked without tinkering.

      But yeah, I feel like Mumble sounds better than Discord too.

      And is about as bare bones as you can get. Sorry, but that just doesn’t cut it today. People have moved on from ONLY needing VOIP. Sharing images, videos, text, etc. is a big part of gaming communities now. Even small groups will want to share info from time to time that Mumble just can’t do well.

      Suggesting Mumble is like suggesting someone get a bike when they’re asking what type of car they should get. Yea, sure, you can make a bunch of arguments for why a bike is better and why cars are bad, but at the end of the day; if the person is wanting an actual car, your suggestion is not helpful, useful, or appreciated.
