I left Facebook about six years ago and have never missed it. The drolly named Discord has been far more rewarding to me, and has proved even more valuable in non-gaming contexts. An open-source Discord with excellent privacy respect is about all I want.

Matrix.org is likely the closest thing to an open source "Discord". Very decentralized, like IRC.

Being open-source alone isn't enough, as many (but not all) open-source projects suffer from the same problems of centralized governance.
