Try Matrix. It’s a hair more complex than Signal but it has a lot more features- closer to Discord than Signal. Beeper.com is based on it- when they finally open the registration floodgates that will probably be the one to use. It’s just Matrix (fully federated) with hosted bridges to a few popular chat networks. And that integration is enough of a ‘carrot’ to persuade a lot of people to move.
Probably not. The only way monitisation would make them move is if discord forced a subscription. These are people who don’t really care about ads or data collection.

Tried a matrix instance, again no one interested to move from Discord, which is another platform I’d happily never use again.
well apparently Discord is now pushing the monetize button… perhaps that will help them make the move…
