A web-based messaging app, built for selfhosting. A parody of Discord.
Guilds, DMs, friends and custom emoji on a server you run yourself, for the people you actually talk to. It's like the real thing, minus the ads and the Nitro upsell. Plus a few bugs, probably.
Guilds with channels, categories, roles and permissions. Replies, reactions, pins, search, markdown, spoilers, polls and slash commands. Link previews that look like Discord's (tweets and YouTube included), the same Twemoji on every device, invite links that turn into join cards, and long-press and swipe on your phone. Custom emoji and stickers work everywhere, for everyone, free. (Take that, Nitro.)
Friend requests by username, message requests from people you don't know yet, blocking, group DMs, and an inbox for server announcements. Keep a private note on someone. Hop between accounts and servers from one switcher. Link your Discord account and get pinged there while you're away. (Yes, really.)
One small Python server and one SQLite file. You own the data and set the rules. Link previews are fetched by the server, so the sites people link to never see your address. See what your storage goes on, back everything up with one command, and swap the logo and sounds by replacing a file. Hand out your own badges, blue Verified check included.
