I tested out revolt and element. Out of the two element seems to be the most well rounded. What do you people use to replace discord to protect your privacy?

What are the privacy issues with Discord? I honestly hate its format, but I need it for Midjourney.
To keep it short, there isn’t really any privacy.
Servers are public and Private messages are stored without any envryption. If you delete your account then the messages stay and can still be found with your unique ID (just like Reddit). From what ive read Discord also stores your HWIDs and monitors your running processes (with a valid reason considering their game integration). Some say they only store that locally, others claim something else, haven’t seen any proof for either side so far.
The problem really boils down to the fact that people treat discord as a private messenger instead of a public forum despite it clearly beeing the latter.
amen
All fair points but some can be avoided by running discord in browser
Can’t use it because they want my phone number for login but say it’s invalid. 🤪
