Corrupt governments in the past have been toppled thanks to organizing on discord

Matrix, Signal, Proton/Tuta are much better suited to that purpose.

I agree, however the laws shouldn’t make privacy worse on platforms like Discord.

[–] baronvonj@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

indeed they should not.

Stoat is the best discord option right now.

[–] baronvonj@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

not for organizing resistance to corrupt governments, as it doesn't have E2EE.
