    In no particular order, and not all are EU or FOSS But most are FOSS. I think only the first 6 are both EU and FOSS clients. I may not have marked all of the Self Hosted ones, but I think I did.

      How many of these can handle 5-10 people in a voice chat?

      Cause I use Discord weekly for running and playing TTRPGs, over voice, occasionally doing screensharing when one or more of the players are having issues with their PC

        I think Zulip and Kahla do, not sure about which others, but a quick visit to each site should let you know whatever you need.
