Please understand that I’m not a programmer and so this is probably a really dumb question, but Mumble works so great for voice chat and it already has text chat capabilities. It could just do with a UI refresh and maybe some added functionality to really provide a much better alternative to Discord. Any thoughts?
Because no one wanted to?
You haven’t, right? Why? As you said, you don’t have the programming skills (neither do I).
It’s always just that simple - someone with the expertise doesn’t feel like doing it. Nothing more, nothing less.
Sometimes, people like you and me get motivated enough to go learn how to do these things, or find people with the skills.
