To be a real discord replacement it needs to not be a stack. It also needs to use the server/channel model discord does, rather than rooms like signal or matrix.
Spacebar is the same way though. Like, it’s a one-to-one clone that is reverse engineering the API of the service. Their entire advertisement point is that you can take a Discord client or a Discord bot and throw it on to Spacebar without any type of modification aside from the server url
Last I checked Spacebar hardly just works. Lots of placeholder code at least for the web client. I know there is a fork of it with a web client that’s recommended. But even that for me it’s been buggy
I didn’t have any issues when I tried it a few days ago, but I also never bothered getting voice chat working for it and I haven’t done anything advanced like throwing my bot onto it.
what would be a good stack to replace discord?
teamspeak + signal(desktop client) + ???
If you’re gonna go that way I’d recommend mumble over teamspeak

Stoat or Fluxor do just that.
matrix
Fluxer or Stoat would be your best options for a feature match ….
I wonder how long until cease and desist. Fluxer in particular is a one to one clone.

Lots of companies have a very similar Ui to Discord . Like many do to X or Facebook. I can’t imagine any lawsuit comes about
