What is Tusile?
Tusile is a free Discord alternative for friend groups, gaming crews and online communities. It brings text channels, HD voice, 1080p screen share with audio, calls in DMs, custom emoji and bots together in one app on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and the web, and you can use Tusile's free hosting or self-host your own server.
Call anyone you message
Voice, video and screen share right inside your DMs, one to one or with the whole group. Your phone rings even when the app is closed, and every call leaves a line in the chat so nobody wonders whether they missed it.
- Voice, video and screen share in any DM
- Rings your phone, even with the app closed
- One to one messages stay end to end encrypted
1080p screen share with audio, on every server
HD voice that doesn't crackle, 1080p screen share that doesn't blur out the minimap, and per user volume mixing for the friend with the mechanical keyboard. The sound from whatever you share goes with it, and there are no boost levels to reach first.
- 1080p / 60fps screen share, always free
- The audio from what you share travels with it
- Per user volume, to finally fix that one friend
Light or dark, your call
Tusile now comes in light as well as dark, or follows your device through the day. Every accent colour works in both, and the text stays easy to read.
- Light, dark, or match your device
- Five accent colours that work in both
- Contrast checked on every screen
Find people who speak your language and play what you play
The Tusile directory filters by language, game and interest, and shows what you already have in common before you say hello. Appearing in it is optional: you decide whether to be findable, and you can leave any time.
- Filter by language, game and interest
- See what you have in common before the first message
- Joining the directory is optional and reversible
Unlimited custom emoji and roles, no boost levels
Upload as many emoji as you want and everyone in the server can use them the moment they land. Build a roster of roles with their own colours and permissions, and open channels for whatever your crew is into this week.
- Unlimited server emoji and GIFs, usable by everyone
- Unlimited roles, channels and threads
- Fine grained permissions when you need them
Download Tusile for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS
Same crew, same channels, same vibes, across every screen you own.
Questions people ask about Tusile
Is Tusile free?
Yes. Every in-app feature is free: voice, 1080p screen share with audio, custom emoji, roles, file uploads and push notifications. Free hosting takes files up to 50 MB each, with no storage quota. Optional Supercharge plans, paid one day at a time with prepaid Sparks, add hardware and wider discovery, not features. The prices are on the pricing page.
Is Tusile a Discord alternative?
Yes. It has the pieces a Discord community uses: servers, text channels, roles and permissions, voice channels, screen share, direct messages and bots, and what Discord sells through Nitro is included for free. There is no importer for Discord message history, so you set up channels and roles fresh.
Can I self-host Tusile?
Yes. The community server is free and ships as one Docker image for your own VPS or hardware, with no member cap on joins and your data on your machine. Offgrid mode runs it fully standalone with local accounts. Start with the self-host guide.
Does Tusile have bots?
Yes. Add a bot somebody has already written from inside the app, or write your own with the free @tusile/bot npm package: slash commands, buttons, forms and embeds. A bot connects out over a WebSocket, so it needs no public URL. See Bots.
Which platforms does Tusile run on?
Windows 10 and 11, macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), Linux (AppImage and .deb), Android, iPhone and iPad, and any modern browser, with no install and no account needed to try it.
Is Tusile end-to-end encrypted?
One-to-one direct messages are, with a key that stays on your device and that Tusile never holds. Server channels, group DMs and voice are not end-to-end encrypted. Tusile does not scan your messages, and if you self-host, the server's content stays on your own hardware.
Where can I get help?
