    Is there a new "default"platform everyone is moving to? I’m kind of surprised there isn’t an open source discord clone that comes with e2e encryption. I’m not tech savvy enough to understand the challenges involved I’m sure.

      I’ve seen Stoat thrown around, I think the best swap right now is to matrix though.

        Yeah I’ve tried both. Stoat looks good and seems like the best option for similar organization but matrix seems better in terms of privacy. If matrix wasn’t so clumsy it would be hands down the best option.

      This may be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think a Discord clone would need e2e encryption. Some large Discord servers have hundreds of thousands of users. I just think that if you want a small private communication channel, something like a Signal group would work better.
