I am already learning about matrix protocol which is seeming like a good alternative. https://matrix.to/#/#all-topics:matrix.org

I have already spun up an instance for my friends. It was easier than I thought. You can bridge it into Discord an import the history of all channels of your servers, so you won't lose it all too. Worked pretty well.

How can you do this? I just spun up an Element container but am still learning about Matrix as a whole.
