Are there any privacy friendly Discord clients or frontends?

I have the impression it's against their TOS to use an alternative client, so is it worth it to even use one?

Did they recently reevaluate their stance on banning 3rd party clients? Because I'm pretty sure I was banned for exactly that, about two years ago.

It would've been because you used a plugin that spammed the api

Not to my knowledge, but oh well. Turns out I much prefer life without Discord anyway, but it's still annoying that they never actually told me what the ban was for.

But still I wouldn't risk it because it's against the TOS. It can happen and nobody knows if they ever take stronger action.
