It is an more private alternative to Discord. Even tough they do not offer federation, self-hosting servers is possible, but self-hosting Dms is not possible. Matrix does not have separated voice and text chats in one server, aka Discord style. Is it better to use Revolt for now or create our own Federated Discord alternative?

Why does everything have to look like discord.

Cause the UI and UX is so damn good. That's part of why they got so popular, people really liked their interface, the way they had voice "channels" you could just join instead of fiddling with calls etc.

Not everything, but Discord blends text channels and voice channels together perfectly.
