Well, I don’t know about “dozens” of alternatives, but I can certainly think of a few. Off the top of my head there’s the many clients supporting the Matrix protocol and Revolt. One of the web-based clients for Matrix, Cinny seems to be trying to emulate Discord’s look and feel.
That said, I haven’t used Revolt and I’ve only used Matrix to send text messages. It does have voice chat, but I have no idea how well it works. As I understand it, Revolt seems to be further along on that front.
I’ll definitely have to check out Cinny especially I very much dislike the UI of Element after my roughly 30 minutes of trying to use it last night.
I’ll also take a bigger look at Revolt as well. I’ve heard that there are Bridge bits for Discord and Matrix that offer puppeting, is there something like that for Revolt?

Looks like it. You can find the list of bots for Revolt here.
Oooo! I’ll definitely have to look into this tomorrow as it is already past midnight and I need sleep.
