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?

I’m told discord is encrypted too, so could you be more specific?

Discord isn’t encrypted at all
It’s encrypted between you and discord. So somebody on your Wi-Fi can’t see what you’re typing. But it’s not encrypted end to end. Discord can see everything that people talk about. And that’s the problem
That’s just ssl tho
Which is encryption
Secure socket layer is a type of encryption. So discord can correctly claim it is encrypted. And the commenter above can get confused by that. Confusing user to server encryption and end-to-end encryption where the messages are encrypted between users is important distinction.
Yeah ur right, it is encryption, barely, but it is “military grade encryption”
Ceaser cipher is a type of encrypton. That doesn’t make it safe. Nor is TLS with a terribly broken PKI.
