@soatok Yess!!! Couldn't agree more. I guess the biggest downside is the search limitations. But honestly? This is no deal breaker for me.
As you noted: I don't want server operators to be at risk for this stuff.
I think the challenge with a Discord clone thats fully E2EE would be one of UX: how do we avoid users taking a false sense of security from the E2EE in public chats etc.
My hopes are that Fluxer may fit this bill eventually.
