Having a public chat group inevitably devolves into an endless waterfall of messages. I dunno how you do it. I can barely stand being a group with 5 people.
I feel you but its no different than discord groups or such
It's very different. Discord has "channels" and "categories" to organize discussions.
I agree here. As much as I hate Discord, it would be much better geared for this. Have you considered Revolt? I haven't tried it myself, but it is the most prominent open source solution to Discord.
Revolt is great, but still lacks good audio and video support. Me and friends use Mumble now instead till they add good support.
I was by no means suggesting using Discord instead. Just from a purely practical perspective, it is very different.
I didn't mean to imply that you were suggesting Discord. I was just agreeing with you that channels would really help.
Sorry about that. I meant that OP could check out Revolt for an open source chat that had channels.
