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?

Again, I just don’t understand what you mean by this, there’s a list of servers, you click one and get a list of channels in that server, click one of those and you’ve got a classic chatroom.

What is it you find chaotic?

When I started out with discord I felt like such a boomer. Four years in it’s a breeze, until I made my own server, then it was a few weeks back with the boomer feel.

If you’re coming from mumble/ventrilo or such, there’s quite a bit to learn imo. Especially if you never used skype or the like, and were used to IRC. Or I’m just a boomer…
