You may enjoy Ripcord if you're not happy with Discord's UI. I've been using it for a few months, and it's made Discord enjoyable to use.

I do have to open the official client whenever I do voice calls though, because there's currently an issue that can cause incoming audio to sound terrible. But for text chat, it's great.

It would help if discord would stop threatening to ban people for using third party clients.

I've ditched the client for web only with custom css. Also allows me to block every kind of tracking (opened programs). I only use it as a chat client and still run a TS3 server because discords audio is just garbage

Would it be possible to share this custom CSS please? Also, what tracking/how are you stopping it?
