Hello everyone! After Discord’s new CEO came to power, I think its now time to find a viable discord alternative. I figured out that fluxer.app might very well be the best one so I decided to make a community about the Fediverse on there

Fluxer is a discord-like application that also aims to bring decentralization by making users able to host their own Fluxer instances! There’s a lot of potential and I think we should support the project. If you want to join, here’s the link :D

EDIT: So guys, about the CLA thing… Hampus (the Developer) removed the CLA completely so now the software is released under plain AGPLv3, which is really nice! Here’s my source

          Right, but Matrix has been around for a while and yet its only use is to be a hub for tech-related projects and support rooms. How would you propose we somehow get people using it?

      Because Matrix has got to many inconsistencies and it’s too complicated for the average user. Sometimes e2e encryption breaks chat history, the official instance is slow and, most of all, there is NO native support for video calls and screen sharing. Element just uses Jitsi Meet In a chromium wrapper

    Did something happen to the Fluxer community? It’s suddenly gone from my list (with no “!” outage symbol, just gone) along with the second one that was established for ApexSync. Curious where else to follow the community while ApexSync is still in development.

      I’m assuming they acted rash and emotionally when they decided to make their own platform, and realized the task was too big for them to shoulder, so they went nuclear. It’s not just the fluxer stuff, at least one of them also deleted their socials.

      I think them deleting their apexsync discussion server before the release date (so people have no chance to switch over if they forget the name) is proof that the project has died. Or at least isn’t planned to release any time soon after all.

      Apparently Fluxer is moving the infrastructure to a better one so sometimes outages are to be expected…Rome wasn’t build in 3 days

        No, they’re pointing out that the server this post is about got deleted.

        The admins got annoyed by Fluxer’s stability issues and announced they’d be developing their own activitypub platform instead to compete with fluxer, leading to them neglecting the Fluxer server this post is about.

        Then, both the fediverse server and the one about their alternative got deleted. At least one of the admins also deleted their Mastodon.
