>Discord start as "your private place for your friends to talk" during a time where there were a lot of privacy issues with other communication methods.
Discord started as a way for gamers to chat with one another. Initially the developers even wanted to sell games directly from the platform [1].
I think it would be incorrect to position Discord as a privacy-oriented platform when the desktop client needs to be run in a sandbox because there's no real way to disable data collection.
