Hello. I'm looking for a more private (for obicous reasons) and fast discord client for android, since the app is terrible and preforms terribly on my relatively old phone. I can't change to something like matrix/signal, since I can't convert other people.

Whatever client you use, there is no privacy with Discord. Period. Full stop.

Privacy isn't the only reason to use free software. Some people have contacts on Discord that they don't want to lose touch with. Of course, like all proprietary silo networks, Discord is best avoided if possible.

They are "looking for a more private" client. With the centralized Discord service that does anything it wants with any message there is no such thing.
