Holepunch Unveils P2P Platform "Pear Runtime"
Love to see P2P coming back. Back in 2013 I built a P2P application platform called Firestr (https://www.firestr.com) that was targeted as an all in one platform to build and share graphical P2P apps. The apps were built using a built-in collaborative app editor. You could build P2P apps with friends using P2P!
You create a conversation with one or more people and can then launch apps into that conversation. The people on the other side didn't have to have the apps installed. If they liked an app, they can install it with one click and use it in their own conversations. If they wanted to change the app, they can do that too!
Despite how easy all these new P2P app frameworks are, none of them are as easy as Firestr was.

Any free discord clients/frontends?
Sadly no, but its more privacy respecting than the regular client for sure. FOSS options include: https://github.com/diamondburned/gtkcord4 https://github.com/uowuo/abaddon https://github.com/terminal-discord/weechat-discord (weechat plugin to use Discord within weechat) https://github.com/evelyneee/accord (seems to be for M1 macs) https://github.com/ArmCord/ArmCord (seems to support AMD64, not just Arm64) https://github.com/khlam/discord-sandboxed (sandboxing for standard discord client) There are others I'm sure. One easier option is to run the Discord code in a newer version of Electron. This still isn't open source, but it provides better security and performance. Arch users can use the AUR package discord_arch_electron, other users can just follow the commands in the PKGBUILD for said package and figure it out. Hope that helps. Keep in mind even if your client is open source, Discord's servers aren't, and while there will be some mitigation of data collected, it'll still be quite a bit.
