It's open source, the guy that responded to me didn't bother to look at it.
Did you look at the link? It's open source
https://fluxer.app/ seems promising. Hoping they get self hosting documentation out soon
Edit: it's open source guys... https://github.com/fluxerapp/fluxer
Your hostility confuses me. I'm not a node dev.
I skimmed some of the server files and didn't see the normal vibe coded slop I normally see in other languages and was genuinely curious what you saw.
Thank you for your examples.
I took a look. Didn't seem vibe coded to me. Is there a specific area you looked at that looks vibe coded?
What makes you say that?

Looks like Pride from Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood 😂
I'll preface this with things on the internet are not always factual.
In addition to that, I was mistaken, it wasn't total traffic, just the two most active users didn't post at all on the day the Ukrainians attacked the power grid...
The other statistics in this thread are eye opening for normal people, if they are accurate.
There was also that incident a few months ago where part of Moscow lost power/internet and the traffic on that sub dropped significantly.
The actual Americans there that fall for the propaganda are truly a sad bunch.
Update: I was wrong you do not need to create an account for each server
Original with misinformation stricken out: I don't think stoat is federated... ~~People need to make a new account for every server, so I can't see this catching on~~.
I wouldn't personally care, but it's a problem for a lot of people.
If I'm wrong let me know though. I'd love to get away from discord and my attempts to get friends on mumble or TS6 have been unsuccessful.
Navidrome uses the subsonic API but is actively developed and works great.
It got an influx of people and is laggy, but when it works... it honestly feels just like discord. I haven't seen screen sharing working yet but the dev in the discord was saying he was working on an update to alleviate the lag and it would make self-hosting easier, which would also help alleviate lag indirectly
