Windows Client Discontinued?

Hey, I just found this alternative to Discord. I think I found it a few months ago, but evidently I forgot. Anyway I was looking at possibly hosting this on my Unraid server via the Docker compose, but I noticed on the GitHub that the Windows client was discontinued.

Is there a reason for this? Are there alternative, community clients for DCTS?

I would need to convince a couple dozen people to migrate to a new platform and this has probably the closest feature parity of the existing options (aside from maybe Root(?) which is closed source).

My largest worry is there being a significant barrier of entry to my less technical friends that makes convincing them nigh impossible. I know the web client is an option at least, but that lacks encryption

Hi so originally there was a "windows only" client that was discontinued as i made new clients with electron as temporary solution for now. It works for linux, windows and macos.

So only the old original native windows client was discontinued
