Is there a free software with voice chat and screen sharing? I am searching for one.

    Matrix has VC, but not sure about screen sharing.

    I think Jitsi Meet can do screen sharing, but that's a separate platform from Matrix dedicated to video calls, although I think Matrix clients can integrate with it IIRC.

    Element call (Matrix) has screen share, Signal does as well.

    Apparently it doesn't really support audio with screen sharing. I do want to share the audio as well so i can watch youtube and stremio with friends

    I have heard from tons of people, especially here on Lemmy who have tried to move people and communities over that it is often abandoned due to a huge amount of fundamental and UX problems that make it a huge pain to deal with and admin for and keep updated without a bunch of things breaking.

    This seems very promising. It's a self hosted discord. Basically exactly what I was searching for. It looks like it's a bit buggy for now but I will test it when I get home.

    That looks interesting, and since it's licensed under GPL I do genuinely hope it's successful,

    It'll have to prove that it can eventually scale at least as well as the battle proven XMPP protocol (apparently the main Fluxer server is already experiencing lag from the sudden growth its gotten after the discord announcement). And it'll be competing with the Movim XMPP client (which may reach feature parity with Fluxer soon). But I do wish the dev luck. They seem pretty chill, and with more contributors, I could see it taking on Discord.
