Is this a joke?
It should be matrix. I doubt anyone who really understands would be using discord. It was probably just copied from the reddit one.
Holy shit you right. Its convenience I guess for newbies. But yeah thats really bad for privacy.
I mean, you can banish it to a browser, a dedicated even if you really wanted to. Matrix is not exactly the most beginner friendly thing tbh
matrix through Element is as user-friendly as discord 🤷
I haven’t tried Matrix but I wouldn’t call Discord user friendly either 🤪
Matrix I feel is one of the better os for newbies You just send them towards element.io. Or at least that’s what I did with my friend, when I wanted them to switch
Is it, though? It’s intended to be a public forum either way. As the MPAA and RIAA should have learned, you can’t really keep a public secret.
Using Discord just makes that transparent. You’re absolutely being spied on, instead of jumping through a bunch of hoops to give yourselves false confidence that you’re not being spied on.
Sure. It’s an easy gotcha. But if you consider it a bit more it makes sense.

Could somebody just create a Matrix group/channel/room/space already?
There are plenty already, why not a joint?
More solidarity/less division would be nice but it doesn’t mean that some individuals wouldn’t need to prove themselves to the tasks.Removed by mod

Well, one thing I’ve done is block this community+you and not waste my time.
So have fun with that.
It’s a low-friction way to chat with other privacy-focused people. The alternative is something like Matrix which less people are going to use. That’s the push and pull of trying to be 100% private vs. spreading privacy knowledge to more people.

Out of curiosity, why Matrix and not these other options:
- Jabber/XMPP - has a creat client called Conversations (decentralised)
- SimpleX - by far the most anonymous and potentially decent privacy (centralised server)
- Session - a Signal fork without requiring phone number
- all of the above are listed on F-Droid
Matrix is also decentralized/federated, has encryption integrated into the protocol and enjoys a broad adoption and public support. It also has pretty good integration of bots and even other message protocol services like IRC via “bridges”. The chat clients are pretty good too; Element is pretty much available for every platform but there’s other one’s which are more focussed on Desktop or mobile usage, depending on how you primarily use it.
