Calls are end-to-end encrypted.
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Discord isn’t E2EE either. Having data under your control even if not encrypted os a big win.

then you can use matrix

Can you? Can I? Best I understand it’s a world of pain. If there was a clear winner in the discord-a-like OSS race all these alternatives wouldn’t be coming out of the woodwork. Maybe it’s matrix (with an actually good client, proper decentralization, easy containers), maybe stoat, maybe … I’ve always hated discord anyway and have little need currently, I can wait.

I’m in a Discord server with 2000 members. You really want to encrypt and decrypt all incoming and outgoing messages 2000 times? There’s a reason why most E2EE messaging apps don’t really do that for group chats.

Depends on the usecase. If you don’t need chat history for new-joiners, you can work with a single key per group, rotating it whenever someone joins or leaves. Since the server broadcasts a „so-and-so has left/joined“ it might as well include the new key. That key is then used by everyone in the group, so you can still broadcast all messages and don’t have to encrypt them individually.
