Does anybody have any suggestions for alternatives for chats?

I use it a lot for classes (students use them) and video games.

I used to use TeamSpeak. Very cross platform, as it should be. It still has great reviews although I haven’t dug that far into the privacy aspect yet

Mumble is an open source version of Teamspeak.

The fact that Teamspeak server is closed or restricted source means it’s going to enshittify eventually
