Mumble is also ONLY voice chat. The problem is that Discord is so many useful things at the same time - text chat, voice chat, video chat, and game streaming, all integrated together seamlessly - that it’s hard to move off of when you need a whole suite of applications to replace it.
I’m not sure you could say that Mumble does text chat. What it has barely qualifies as text chat at all, much less fully-featured text chat. It exists as much to communicate system messages as anything else.
I’m not sure what you mean by a text chat functionality being more or less integrated? Integrated with what? OP stated that Mumble exclusively does voice chat, which is simply wrong. You can send text messages to users and channels.
Why would it? How am I sending text messages to multiple users and channels daily, if Mumble doesn’t do text chat? Please explain to me what kind of black magic I am channeling.
Mumble is much better for gaming. It’s lightweight and doesn’t use the GPU at all. Since it’s self hosted, there is no ID verification.

This is not true. Mumble does text chat as well. Please don’t spread misinformation.

It’s no where near as well integrated though is it? Unless they have completely revamped the client.

I assume they want a fully rich text channel: Markdown, embedded images/audio, reactions, code blocks, URL previews, etc.
They won’t be happy returning to a text channel which is just text.
Sure, that doesn’t mean that Mumble doesn’t have text chat though, does it?
It does mean that.

I wonder if slopping webapp alternatives together would provide a close enough alternative
I have been informed that Matrix actually serves pretty much all these needs now. I’m going to have to give it a try in the near future.
