Too Many Notifications

Requires way better notification settings, because depending on the community you're in, you could easily get over 1,000 notifications a day.

The best thing since sliced bread

This truly is a amazing app and out paces every other discord alternative in passion and features the dev is super down to earth and really cool overall highly recommended you give it a chance

Promising To-Go

It’s looking up to be a pretty promising chatting alternative.
It’s pretty obvious it’s a work in progress, being a bit barebones in areas, but even with what they do have now it’s still a decent experience.
Easy to understand (and transfer to), so-so customization, clean looking, constantly being maintained, and has a very active dev team.

Tremendous Discord Replacement

Osmium is a fantastic and stable new communal home for online societies that has much of the same look and feel as Discord. Setting up is quick and easy, and new features are being added daily. I’ve even seen bugs get reported and fixed within hours. If you’re on Discord now, I would highly recommend jumping over to Osmium. Fantastic work on the first try app approval, Devs!!!
