OK I actually went ahead and tried this because I thought it looks cool. It does look cool. That's about it. Aside from copying Discord's UI to a T, it otherwise doesn't seem to do hardly anything, and what it does do it seems to do poorly.

I want to like this since FOSS alternative to Discord are always welcome, but Matrix+Element is just light-years ahead of this. Like why even bother when Element exists and it's amazing? (I know people who don't like Element, but actually it's amazing.)

Also, I get the sneaking impression it's only named Revolt because of the name Riot, which Element used to be called.
