So, I’ve been having issues with voice chat on Discord and I’m looking for alternatives. In my search, I came across Mumble, here. Does anyone here have experience, or information regarding Mumble, or a better alternative to Discord with better latency? Is it relatively easy to set up? Is it safe? Any advice and help is greatly appreciated.

    It’s a voice chat server. That’s all it does. You can’t post images, GIFs etc.

    Fine for if you just need voice, but good luck getting people away from discord.

    (Used it for WoW before discord)

      Mumble supports text chat and images too. Right click on a channel or user and select send message. There is an insert image button in the message window. I wish they would make it so you could just drag and drop an image though.

        You actually can drag-n-drop pictures to the chat. Just drag them (dropping multiple images is possible) to the message text field and the image will be uploaded and shown in the chat - scaled down if it is big.
