mods are not professional and there have been quite a lot of drama around here with the owner and staff themselves. it's solid, but i really CANNOT recommend using the main instance, it's bad. i'd recommend self-hosting it, because the potential may be still there

a good community and a very well put together app
Could've been something. Made poor decisions instead

a melhor alternativa ao discord
good app and has a lot of updates that keep improving it and the team are very friendly most of the time. definitely improvements to be made in some areas but overall its a really promising place and theyve been making a lot of improvements to fix some of the issues it had in the past
Free software, good community, feature-rich and mostly stable.
Client should be friendlier to keyboards (more keyboard shortcuts and actions).
A great app with P2P voice calling, profile themes, role icons and a polished UI with a lot of customisation options. Nerimity has posts which is a unique feature. Servers have a ton of options and overall Nerimity is great to use.
