TeamSpeak 3 still looks a little like Windows XP on macOS. At least to me. That’s a bit of nostalgia, sure. But I was also curious what a native SwiftUI client could feel and look like.
The result is LeanSpeak.
It’s free, very early in development, and hasn’t been tested on many machines yet. It works with TeamSpeak 3 servers.
LeanSpeak is made for casual users, not for admins. So I don’t plan to build every little setting the official client has.
One more thing to know: LeanSpeak creates its own identity, but you can also import your old one. With a new identity, a server sees you as a new user, so an admin may have to give you your groups again.
You need a Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 27 or newer. If you try it, I’d love to hear what works for you and what doesn’t.
