Data protection concerns regarding Discord and the project homepage

[linux-lukas]

I became aware of this open source project (OSP) and unfortunately had to discover two not so nice things:

1. a lot of unnecessary tracking is integrated on the project homepage, which doesn't have to be there and also leads to the project coming across as somewhat less serious to users who are sensitive to data protection, for example. :/

2. the OSP relies on the non-privacy-friendly medium "Discord" for communication (see https://www.messenger-matrix.de/messenger-matrix-en.html).

My suggestions:

Re 1: Check whether the tracking links really have to be there and if not, remove them completely.

Re 2: For communication via the OSP, the decentralised alternative Matrix / Element (with a space for the project) or XMPP could be suitable.
