I badly want to move off of discord, but I need something that follows the "voice channels" concept from discord (which comes from teamspeak/ventrilo/mumble).

What do you think the best path is to that feature? Element seemed to have audio calls already, but not voice channels.

Also basic features like push to talk and noise thresholds are key.

Who's going to proxy that voice? That's not a free service. Discord burns investor's money, but most services can't afford that.

Afaik Matrix uses whatever homeserver you are using to proxy the voice. Video calls as well
