I call it Discord Lite™ and it carries a few annoyances: - **You can't point the Revolt app to a custom domain.** There is a workaround for this: visit `revolt.handmadecities.com` in your phone's native browser (Safari on iOS). Now hit `Add to Home Screen` and the PWA you just installed behaves like any other electron app. -- **Missing bells & whistles.** There's no message pinning, no threads, and limitations on emoji reactions. These are irritations to me, not deal breakers. Many people find Revolt snappier with no loading times. +- **Missing bells & whistles.** There's no message pinning, no threads, and limitations on emoji reactions. These are irritations to me, not deal breakers. Many people find Revolt snappier with zero loading times. - **Lack of E2EE.** Discord has this problem too. Handmade Cities policy is to safeguard private DMs and never inspect their contents, but you're choosing to trust us instead of Discord. Never disclose sensitive material on our servers; instead you should ask the person you're talking to for their [Signal](https://signal.org/) username and hop over there. #### Final Notes To summarize: Our new [Revolt](https://revolt.handmadecities.com) is invite‑only. You must be a verified human; either I know you, or a meetup host does. The easiest way to get invited is to attend an in‑person event. If this feels like too much, consider this your warning: the Discord goes kaput after New Year’s Eve. Exchange contact info, save any important links, and follow our [public newsletter](/news) to stay updated, with or without Revolt/Stoat.
