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?

          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

              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.

                Ceaser cipher is a type of encrypton. That doesn’t make it safe. Nor is TLS with a terribly broken PKI.
