e2ee works fine for Signal group chats; there is no reason it couldn’t be implemented on Discord group chats.

That’s not the issue. The issue is that Discord believes they deliver value through aggressively censoring their platform. e2ee prevents that.

e2ee also doesn’t prevent a user from storing their long term keys on the server to be retrieved on new devices and decrypted locally so they can access message history. e2ee does not require PFS.
