On the side bar it lists the following:

  • [Matrix/Element]Dead
  • Discord

“Discord” is an active link, but the Matrix link is completely inactive. Not only is it inactive (which could have be excused as a broken link), but it is also manually labeled as “Dead”, as if there is no intention of making it work. How can a community that is focused on privacy willingly favor a service that is privacy non-respecting when a perfectly functional privacy-respecting alternative exists?

    IRC-dwelling Gen Z here. Discord is an abomination. Not to mention that it’s apparently not very friendly to third-party clients, while the official one as well as browser version is very heavy. Like, “a third of what my whole OS consumes” heavy.

    Left Discord a while ago, no regrets.
