Why does this community, which is privacy oriented, use Discord rather than Matrix? (lemm.ee)

On the side bar it lists the following:

  • [Matrix/Element]Dead
  • Discord

"Discord" is an active link, but the Matrix link is completely inactive. Not only is it inactive (which could have be excused as a broken link), but it is also manually labeled as "Dead", as if there is no intention of making it work. How can a community that is focused on privacy willingly favor a service that is privacy non-respecting when a perfectly functional privacy-respecting alternative exists?

There is an "edited" indicator for posts, and the post you're referring to doesn't have it.

Sure, your point is true, but you were (incorrectly) accusing the other commenter of skipping a qualifier that would make your point relevant.

    You're right; Voyager doesn't show the "edited" flag.

    I was mistaken about the word, and the accusation about skipping over it was unwarrented.

    I think this is missing the point by arguing semantics, but my phrasing was wrong.
