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?

    Because none of the FOSS platforms have good moderation controls. This is why any sane person runs to adopt Big Tech platforms. Lemmy has same issues. Lemmy is only working because a few of us zealots are able to handle the small number of people on this platform. If it grows too much, many moderators will run away faster than Usain Bolt.
