Now that people have moved from reddit to lemmy I'm glad to be using more FOSS software. Now all that's left is discord but I can't find a good replacement.

If you get Beeper.com which is based on Matrix.org you can have both: FOSS and chatting with your friends on Discord.

Interesting. Never heard of Beeper. Looks like they even have a client for desktops. Does it also cover (video) calls and screen sharing for Discord and/or Signal?

Sadly it doesn't cover screen sharing, haven't tried calls yet.

Matrix is a Fediverse real-time chat/messaging system.

IRC is an old-school federated chat system (originally created in 1988!)

Matrix is quite a long way from Discord still. Even the devs know and track that: https://github.com/vector-im/element-meta/discussions/723
