I still use reddit for purposes ranging from getting solutions to pastimes. Same for discord. There are a few communities on it that I need to be connected, most notably dev related.

What suggestions would you guys make? Are there any bridges/frontend I could use to get more privacy?

    Devs are usually technical enough to understand privacy. Have you tried suggesting a switch to matrix or simplex?

      It’s a learning community, with possibly thousands of participants. The server mods won’t switch from discord for this reason

          I know the saying, but I don’t understand the benefit of your comment. If you say the horse is me, the only way it works is I give up my access to the learning community. If the mean the discord admins/mods, they’re still working on scripts for discord bots, so no they won’t be switching anytime soon. The server is Odin Project btw, and the size of new users won’t let them switch.

            Worry not! The horse in this case is them. You can show them a better way, but can’t force them to take it :)
