Officially; No.

Informally; there's a few mods of the stock Discord client; however they're all closed source because they cannot possibly be fully open source as the stock Discord client is Closed Source.

Basically; alternatives exist; However they are not FOSS, FLOSS, OS or even fully Source Available.

Beeper exists but this is not strictly a Discord-only client and it is not fully Open Source; as some client/server code is only "Source Available". Beeper is also not fully "Free"; unless you self-host it. Furthermore access to Beeper is heavily join-gated. You will have to source an invitation code from someone you know. (No, I will not provide one.)

If you do get invited to Beeper; use Beeper Cloud, and be aware that iMessage integration does not work.

I've been with Beeper since beta testing and use it with Discord. iMessage works fine for me btw. If anyone wants an invite, then I'd be happy to give you one.

I'd like one if you still have any
