Discord was great when it launched. It brought communities together and changed how we communicate online.
But over the years, it became increasingly bloated, resource-heavy, and complicated. And despite being built around communities, the platform itself remains closed-source.
We believe communities deserve better.
That's why we're building openDiscord - a free, open-source Discord alternative focused on what actually matters:
• Open source: Transparent, community-driven development.
• Privacy first: Your conversations and data should be yours.
• Self-hosting: Run your own server and stay in control.
• Fast & lightweight: No unnecessary bloat.
• Modern & simple: A clean experience without sacrificing essential features.
We're not trying to reinvent communication. We're trying to make it open again.
We're still early in development, and your feedback will directly influence what we build next.
One question for the Product Hunt community: What's the one thing you'd change about Discord?

Who hunted openDiscord?
openDiscord was hunted by Livvux. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
