Echon – A privacy-first Discord alternative built in Tauri/Rust

A hot take: it's hard to take a privacy-first claim without a large grain of salt when data at rest is hosted and processed in the U.S., an increasingly-rogue actor with no meaningful privacy laws.

> The team that builds and runs Echon works out of Canada; operational data is processed both in Canada (where the team accesses it) and in the United States (where our infrastructure is hosted).

That aside, the website doesn't really emphasize the privacy angle, so I'm curious about what makes this "privacy-first".
