I have been asking sorund in all platforms if anyone knows of a project to build a client with UI/UX format similar to Discord/Element/Slack but based on XMPP?

I was previously pointed to XEP-0503 which outlines the "Spaces" concept for XMPP which would enable the basic backend service to work with "Spaces" and "subchannels", but all I have found so far is Cheogram implementing it in channel info to view the set of channels hosted by a given instance/domain. It works, though not extremely reliably.

Does anyone know of a project explicitly pursing an XMPP competitor to Discord/Element?

I personally think Movim is the best option for now. It doesn't aim to be a direct Discord clone, but it has a lot of the features Discord users would expect, except for the "spaces" (guilds) feature. But you can have A/V calls in groups with screen-sharing and so on, so functionality wise it isn't that far off. They are also currently thinking about turning the current community blogs into something more like Discord forums, but that is still in the planning phase.
