So…this one is a bit left-of-field.

A friend of mine (Gardiner Bryant of YouTube - who reports on Linux and the Steam Deck) has started a Revolt server.

What is Revolt?

It’s kinda like a FOSS alternative to Discord. You’ll see the layout is almost a direct copy, and it’s far less polished…but then again you haven’t got the downsides of Discord’s constant upselling either:

Why is this relevant?

…I can hear you ask? Well, so far its just a few developers and creators in there, but I thought of all spaces…maybe those very devs and creators whose work you use and watch…well it might be nice to join in there?

My personal friends who are in here so far are:

• I’mLinguin whose GitHub is here - but you may know most as a developer of Heroic Games Launcher

• Junkrunner whose GitHub is here - but you may know best as the dev of Junk-Store

• Gardiner himself, of course whose YouTube link is here,

• Jason Evangelho who is the senior contributor of gaming at Forbes - and hasn’t read my message yet telling him to join the server so…I’m not even sure why I’m writing this, but regardless his link to his credentials is here

What is the damn link to the damn server, woman?

I mean, you will have to make an account on Revolt, but it might be interesting to some here. You’re all very welcome!
