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?
This only makes sense if discord is a common entry point into the community which seems unlikely to me
It probably isn’t, but it’s probably a good place to get a quick answer about something.
Is it though? Don’t you need a phone number to sign up now?
