Is there any Fediverse (or similar) alternative to Discord (pawb.social)

Preferably one that's popular enough to have more content than a cobweb

There's Matrix, which is federated (diff protocol than ActivityPub, though). It seems decentlly active but atm maybe one of those things where you need to already know people who use it to be able to find the good stuff, because I'm struggling to find much of anything I like (but I've also been dodging the larger groups because I'm nervous lmao)

There's also XMPP or Jabber as it used to be called, which is better for 1-on-1 type conversations, but group chats are also a thing there.

I see, but I don't think I know anyone who uses it. I know matrix has a public channel, but is the public channel decent? I'm honestly kinda nervous to jump into a new platform-- I'm already nervous enough to post anything on a platform I'm already familiar with

I don't use the big generalistic Matrix channel so I can't say, but I'm in a smattering of groups for programming topics I'm interested in like Godot and they're really nice.
