> people are chosing to use Disord despite the fact that it is so stupidly proprietary

This has zero relevance to normal users. Does teamspeak/irc/mumble/etc even support live streaming with screen+audio capture to a group chat? That's a pretty basic feature in 2023. I'm not aware of any serious open source competitors in this space




"Does teamspeak/irc/mumble/etc even support live streaming with screen+audio capture to a group chat?"

pIRCh98 had video chat support, and back then we used some wrapper from FRAPS to do our screen captures.

Of course, back then, video chat was such a niche thing.

Everyone else is actually late to the game - IRC had this capability before the majority of known players.

Proprietary software. I guess the answer to my question is no, there are no open-source competitors in this space.
