I made a modern Mumble client called Rumble (multiplatform)
Hi there,
I have used mumble for at least 15 years now and while it works usually very solidly. I was always frustrated with the UI/UX and the lack of _nice_ multi platform support.
A short while ago I thought I would give it a chance and create my own client which is fully compatible with the original server so nobody has to switch if they don't want to but they and I can.
(I strive for very good UX but the main UI style is basically the shadcn style library)
https://github.com/GDur/rumble-voip/tree/main
I am using it now instead of the original client. It has a lot of improvements but most notable IMO:
- cross platform support (Windows, Mac, iOs, Android, Linux)
- modern design
- far improved image viewer and sender abilities
- helpers for eg permissions in MacOs for global hotkeys
- fully open source
- echo cancellation (helps eg. when two parties are talking at the same time with speakers on)
At the moment not every platform is exported/built automatically.
If anybody is interested in helping to expand this or has feature ideas or any other input I would love to hear it here or in the github issues section.
Thx also to my friend Manuel who helped me with the project!
Hope this helps others too.
Cheers 😄
Gregor
