I’m still keeping up the Invidious link since exactly in the Privacy community rules, it says that there can’t be any links with any major tracking requests on it. You can easily just change the link yourself if that’s the case.
If none of your friends are on revolt or matrix, that’s an issue on your end. You can just make your own rules and ask people to contact you on only private platforms or via email. Which is exactly what I’ve done when I was migrating from Discord to Revolt.
However, if you absolutely have to use Discord, which I wouldn’t recommend, the least you could do is disable the diagnostics and only use it in a private browser or a open source client like Datcord or Spacebarchat.
I run a large community, it’s not just a matter of asking people to contact me elsewhere. You can’t uproot a community and bring it somewhere else, and I wouldn’t be able to at all because of matrix’s and revolt’s lack of permissions systems, bots, and other things that are unique to discord. I would welcome a viable alternative. I’ve spent many hours trying to make matrix work with the functionality I need, and it’s simply not possible.
As far as the link goes, I’m not sure if those rules mean the links themselves must not contain tracking, or that the website on the other end must not contain tracking. You can have youtube links that themselves have no tracking information in it. You can’t just ban links to any site with tracking, you’d just have nothing you can link to.
Edit: the rule also says “isn’t great”. That’s not the same as “isn’t allowed”. Forcing someone onto a frontend that either doesn’t work for them or is annoying to use I think is worse than letting users redirect themselves using a “tracking filled website” link.

Aliucord and webcord also work well
