Based on their contributing page, Chatto appears to be heavily vibe coded, with them actively encouraging any other contributors to use AI. That gets a hard pass from me.
Yeah this is just an AI slop project by the look of it. Realistically I think fluxer is going to be the “winner” when discord does finally implement age verification, and while even that one’s fairly vibecoded, it doesn’t come close to the levels of AI bullshit in this one.

Sounds pretty good. If they release a Windows client it might be the first real Discord alternative (assuming calling and screensharing is actually decent)
Movim is a federated chat platform that recently implemented most of Discord’s features. It’s a little rough in the UX department, but it’s pretty much all there, and it isn’t vibe-coded like this chatto app is.
it does look very promising, and nice that it’s easy to self host too
Why not Fluxer?
Yeah that’s amazing, you do have to use canary for voice and screensharing to work nicely though.
