Use Mastodon. You can use a server outside of your country. And even if your country attempts to find the operator, 10% of their global turnover of zero is still zero.

Mastodon isn’t really a replacement for discord though.

True. Matrix is more for that. Or possibly SimpleX.

~~SimpleX doesn't even have a desktop client.~~ IT DO! Discord is mostly used for gaming.
