Thinks looks interesting. For replacing Discord. Is there also an audio chat function?

  Yes.

  Voice Messages are thing, but are not exactly like Discord voice rooms: https://element.io/blog/introducing-voice-messages-and-so-much-more/ https://element.io/blog/introducing-voice-messages-and-so-mu... But Matrix is an open protocol that everyone can improve. The Specifications Change Proposals are open to everyone willing to formalise the change they want, get it reviewed, and implement it so it works in practice. And there is a Matrix Spec Change going in the direction of Discord-like voice chat rooms!

    I have suggested integrating with Mumble before, it would be a great way to interact. Add a "info.mumble.servers" or "info.mumble.channels" state event, some magic on murmur's side to authenticate using Matrix, and roll with it in your own Matrix client. Pinned messages with mumble:// URIs could be used as a fallback. One of the issues is that upstream mumble lacks support for websockets, so web clients are impossible. Otherwise, it sounds quite promising. I even suggested something along these lines, but haven't had time to cook up a prototype: https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/issues/1813#issuecomment-525004318 https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/issues/1813#issuecomme... (there seems to have been some back-and-forth on that idea since then).

  No, you can't just hop into a room and be connected via audio sadly. One of the biggest things preventing me from using matrix as a replacement for discord
