Element has been working for me and my friends. At the moment, it just embeds Jitsi within the client to do group calls (which works fine. Jisti isn't bad by any means), but native group calls are being worked on and are currently in beta!

You can use Mumble instead of teamspeak.

If you just want to talk, mumble would be a very lightweight alternative.

i just got matrix up and running. its a federated ommunications specification. id invite you to mine but im still ironing things out. check out https://www.matrix.org

Mumble (is comoletely free software and has a better quality even than teamspeak)

There is a pretty similar looking and function called Revolt that could be useful for getting people that are used to Discord to switch. I think they also have a long goal of being able to send and receive messages and calls with Discord. Obviously they don't have that atm, but it is open-source and nice to at least know about in the event a quick exodus of Discord is needed.

So it does! I didn't know that. Admittedly, I don't actually use that much proprietary software on Linux-based systems, so my knowledge is limited. It'd be interesting if Lightworks or DaVinci Resolve were one day distributed with Flatpak, although Blackmagic Design believes Flatpak can't handle DaVinci Resolve's needs.

But hey, a community-built Flatpak for Resolve exists already.

I will never not hate Javascript. I hate all web dev nonsense. What a huge mess that all is.

They're already using an Electron version that supports audio sharing iirc, they just default to their custom implementation which doesn't work on Linux

Yeah, it was for a game, but I just said f it, too confusing for me.
