Policy on linking dangerous research
1: Relevance: Posts must be directly relevant to investigation of Pizzagate: the sexual/physical abuse and/or murder of children by elites, child trafficking organized by elites, and/or cover-up of these activities and/or the protection/assistance provided to the people who engage in said activities. See definition of Pizzagate and examples of relevant posts.
2: Empiricism: EACH factual claim that is not common knowledge must be sourced with a link. If you ask a question: Explain what led to your question and provide sources. If you present opinion/argument, connect your dots and provide sources for them. Avoid baseless speculation. ALL posts must include at least one link.
3: Clarity: All titles must adequately describe post content and must establish direct relevance to pizzagate. EACH link in your post must include a description of content and how the link relates to the post (except when markup is used to embed links in the specific text they support).
4: Meta submissions and general discussion submissions without sources will be removed. Please submit indirectly relevant posts to /v/pizzagatewhatever and unsourced questions to /v/AskPizzagate. Sourced activism / publicity posts and memes are allowed. Posts about the subverse itself go to /v/pizzagatemods.
5: You must label NSFW posts (“Not safe for work”; for example gore, nudity etc.) as such when submitting.
6: No Link Posts -- Only editable submissions made with the "Discuss" button are allowed. "Link" submissions have been banned by the community for the reasons described here. Link posts will be immediately removed.
Adspam, illegal content, and personal info about Voat subscribers will be removed, and the offender will be banned.

@kevdude, OP and I have discussed this a little further in PMs, and I've been pointed to this comment of yours.
Before we add this channel as an official recommendation to the sidebar: I'm concerned about sending people to a closed-source, centralized service when we already have a privacy-focused Riot instance that is both open-source and decentralized. I also don't think it's a good idea to further divide the community between two chat services. I think this should be discussed before we add the link.

Good to know, thanks for clarifying.

all the same problems with v/pizzagatewhatever - which the discord replaces - arise with Discord (centralization etc.) also being open source doesn't help - ie. reddit - they just change the source code
@kevdude @wecanhelp on the security aspect of discord, investigators like @redberries use discord through tor browser, since discord works with full functionality in a browser
riot is great but isn't working, discord is. i can try and help with riot if you want
like i've said earlier, i've been coding a discord replacement, but that'll be up in like a fortnight, so until then...

The difference is that
I think that's the minimum for anonymity with both Discord and Riot, but given the decentralized, redundant nature of Riot (technically, Matrix), there is no single point of control or failure, meaning you have to take down the entire network of participants to take down the discussion.
What's wrong with it? I'm not protecting it in that aspect as I haven't used it, merely interested.
