Mumble has RMS's sweaty seal of approval. End to end encryption, open source, selfhosted, messages aren't stored.
Discord is fucking cancer and the retards that use it should be shot.

Only modern asymmetric cryptography, in particular elliptical curve is "btfo"
Regular ole hashing and symmetric crypto is perfectly fine and will hold up.

A post-quantum bitcoin signature alternative has been in place for years. The current post-quantum NIST standardization process is nearly wrapped up and you'll likely see it more commonly rolled out. Likely in hybrid modes with existing safe shit considering how new most of these algos are.
If someone could actually break elliptical curve crypto today, they could steal billions in cryptocurrency. The fact that hasn't happened already suggests it's highly unlikely to exist anywhere. There's essentially a massive bounty on this shit right now. If someone has access to enough bits of quantum computing power the thought has surely crossed their mind to do it on the sly.

I've ridden a bunch of these muthafuckas over the years, it's comfy as fuck and well priced, best way to get around. Chink plane travel, not so much, it's literally hell on Earth.

I hope it fails and they build two more to replace it instead, Nightingale strategy style.
Mutts all keen for a race war, when they really should be getting into a space war.
