This is cool to see, though I am sceptical, if it is a good idea to create a drop-in discord server, because this does not allow for the project to add E2EE "easily" without eliminating the drop-in capability.

It's a convenience over privacy thing. If the api is discord compatible you lose the e2e on that channel / server, or make the api e2e but then existing bots need modifying

I could see this being a toggle

That would require a custom client and eliminate the drop in feature. Sadly just adding a toggle does not work :/
