Chats where you truly own your data.
colibri.social
Colibri is an open source chat platform built on the AT protocol for communities big and small.

Still a bit alpha, but looks promising. Several features seem to be waiting for atproto implementation.

    You have been using software stuck in the last century I’m afraid. IRCv3 solves all of this with the clear exception of voice/video chats. Use ergo server, the lounge or gamja as a web frontend. Motd on android feels like a current messenger (but it’s partly made with ai unfortunately). irc really is a credible possibility today

      The problem is that voice&video and spaces/servers are necessary for how most people use these sorts of chat apps nowadays

        I’m not a believer of push notifications, so I leave motd open in the background, with maybe a few hundreds messages a day and it consumes 1% of my battery. I know it’s not an answer, sorry 😅

          i see. i also don’t use push notifications, but to have my discord using friends move over i need to reach feature parity.
