    Discord is a closed source system. Matrix with a discord bridge would work. You just use your matrix server and a bot to send and receive on your behalf. There is functionality between but technically the two systems are independent. I also see issues with it not being 100% all the time. Typical of something bridging to a closed system.

    What compatibility are you looking for? A non discord application connected directly to a discord server and can send text, audio and visual via discord infrastructure? Nah, probably won’t happen. Bridging is the closest right now.

    I setup a Mattermost server for me and the boys. It’s more slack than discord. But chat, rooms and voice all worked. Push notifications worked on android and Apple. But, I had to admit defeat. No one wants to leave discord because they all have at least 1 friend who won’t leave it.

    I tried to self hosted matrix, but it suffered the same feigned interest.


















  • You can look on pcpartpicker. They usually have a graph holding price history. You can see when it was last one sale and make a choice to wait or buy then. Note: I would suggest against buying parts only on sale as if you buy, say a mobo and don’t buy the rest and you can’t test it. That might leave you stuck trying to do warranty claim instead of a store return. Good luck!
