I'm glad nobody is mentioning WhatsApp as an alternative. They released usernames a few months ago, all messages are end-to-end encrypted, will add voice and video calls to WhatsApp Web, many people and companies have an account there already... It would be an easy migration, but awful for privacy. Thankfully, the most similar suggestions I found were Telegram and Signal.

WhatsApp, Telegram and Signal aren't Discord alternatives though? There's no ability to have multi text and persistent voice channels in groups. WhatsApp doesn't even support screensharing.

I read the article, it's a good article but it also shows how we don't really have any options that would match the discord's functionality and ease of use. Which is very sad.
