Yeah I know there's ways to get voice calls and stuff, but the issue is that it's not standardized in any way. As you said, you and everyone involved needs just the right client with just the right home server.
Matrix on the other hand finally managed to more or less solve this with Element Call. That's not to say Matrix doesn't have its own issues, it's still not a complete Discord replacement either, but it is closer than XMPP and more likely to get there eventually.
that's fair, but setting up a matrix server is a PITA where you also have several server/client setup that may or may not use a COTURN + MatrixRTC (you also need to setup COTURN in XMPP)
