Discord is banned in Turkiye. The reason is some data theft, blackmail, AI montage photos, etc. As usual, our government made the easiest and most illogical move :)

I am looking for an alternative platform to talk and chat with my friends. Which platforms do you recommend?

The ones I tried:

  • Revolt: Voice chat is not stable. They do not accept new registrations.
  • Matrix: Unstable overall.
  • TeamSpeak: ancient interface. We can still try it.
  • XMPP: It has an old interface like TS. Not sure if it has voice channels.
  • Your recommendations?

So you're saying revolt is about to have a shitton of russian users, which means it's about to become a pro-russian war hub. You know what they say about nazis. Allow one nazi into your bar, and he'll invite his friends. Soon enough, your bar isn't a bar with a few nazis in it. It's become a nazi bar.

Same concept, different facists.

Russian users who used banned platforms instead of vkontakte aren't necessarily warmongers

Your reply sounds pretty xenophobic, ngl Isn't it better for Russian people to get access to information that Russian government doesn't control?

More like jingoistic, which is rather tiresome anymore. "Nazi" today is a virtually meaningless pejorative, and my dead grandparents are rolling in their graves having escaped real Nazis.

I believe revolt is self hosted so everyone can make their own bar.

Ah yes, because all Russians are Nazis apparently

Russians are now Nazis?

Someone needs to read more history, and out down the Book of Pejoratives
