    I tried it and it’s promising because the call quality is very good compared to Mumble, and push notifications means low battery usage.

    It’s OPUS Codec (same used by Discord), and with very low latency, when they will add the Matrix bridge and e2ee (as stated in the roadmap), i think it will become a very good free as in freedom tool everyone can self-host!

    Of course XMPP is a better protocol and every new messenger feels like reinventing the wheel, but at the moment all clients UI feels dated, and even worse, the good old IRC lack support for mobile internet reconnections, so everyone ends up using Telegram or Discord at the moment.

    In conclusion I think Revolt has good potential, and it could even become a good alternative to all the above, eventually.

        I swear with Mumble I had issues with echo and feedback noise, both on PC with v.1.3.4 and also on Android (with Mumla). I tried it on various devices and i wasn’t happy with the result, but maybe that’s just my experience.

        But i also have to say that v.1.4.0beta has risoved all issues and has a very good quality.

        Can you tell me one of those new IRC servers that do not disconnect when changing IP using mobile conntection? I’d love to try one just out of curiosity (at the moment i’m using matrix bride on Libera)
