Discord may harvest IP's just like every single other service on the planet but people who start servers can not. At this point in time, with a company that has 25 million users daily, i would trust it over the security of voat. Especially considering the admin changes, the new coders implemented, and the new found confidence of SBBH users in regards to the admins giving them the green-light to curate the site and turn it into reddit.

I'm not a nerd so i don't know much, but i know that as server admin i can't get anyone's IP. the room has been around for almost a month now and there hasn't been a single alarming instance. The worst you have to watch out for is BeatlejuiceX3 joining and trying to send you phishing links and scat porn, but that hasnt happened in over 2 weeks, and you can manually disable PM's from anyone not on your PM list.
