Keep In mind that you can still be captured by this feature indirectly, ~~Discord for example certainly doesn’t intend to do anything to hide your messages, they recently went public so in their eyes more tracking the better.~~
I’m thankful to have made a feature request to Element/Matrix asking for them to prevent this exact thing.
Discord... Still isn't public?
They're certainly talking about it but they haven't announced a date yet.
Having said that, element and matrix are both more privacy respecting so I do agree with the recommendation in general.
Apologies, I striked the lines out of my previous comment. It simply was an example of how you still can be captured.
