Private messenger
The permanence is a difficult issue, there are some description here and here, and some proposed solutions here and here , but the main point is that in a federated system you can not be sure about that the others will work in a good faith. If you have shared or sent something to someone outside the infrastructure you control, you can not reverse that. Like if you have sent an email from protonmail to a gmail address, you can not force google to delete that.

Discord? There are many options, but Mattermost is probably the most Discord like. You might choose Matrix instead if you want something federated like the other platforms I've linked here.

Matrix 2.0 — Matthew Hodgson talks about Rust in Element client, Rust SDK, IETF MLS, MIMI and more
Now, the Matrix Foundation has decided to use Rust to improve bits and pieces of their Gen 1 Home Server - Synapse. The server itself is still largely in Python though. That being said, some of the improvements to the performance of Synapse based home servers can partly be attributed to the usage of Rust.
