    Mumble was the first and is the most successful and wide spread free and open source software for VoIP. It was the first VoIP software to provide low-latency audio suitable for gaming, and at the same time was a pioneer in high audio quality.

    Comments about Mumble as an Alternative to Discord
    Comment summary: Mumble offers great audio quality and lower latency compared to Discord and is open-source, allowing users to host their own servers. However, it lacks Discord's screen sharing, video calling, and rich text chat features. Mumble is primarily voice-oriented and resembles TeamSpeak more than Discord. Despite being resource-efficient and easy to join servers, the self-hosting requirement might be a downside for some users.

    The audio quality is great and has less latency than Discord. The server is self-hosted so there is more flexibility as well. But that's the only expect that is better than Discord. Discord has much more functionality like video calling, rich text server chat, etc.

    Awesome instant video meetings, but misplaced in this list as an "alternative", as this has absolutely no similarities to discord and doesn't serve the same use-case.
