Discord Makes All Voice/Video Calls E2EE

The way they phrased the part about text implies they could be open to it if pushed, it would just be resource intensive and difficult. If they pulled it off though, discord would be doing something for the whole world on the scale of WhatsApp turning on e2ee or meta doing it for messenger.

do you know if discord also applies e2ee to metadata? or only data to your knowledge?

As far as I can tell, they haven’t addressed metadata at all. I would assume they are still capturing, recording, analyzing, and sharing metadata associated with calls.
