I've heard good things about Matrix.  I have not used it myself yet, but it is a federated network.  You can run your own Matrix server and keep it private, if you wish.  It may not be on par with Discord when it comes to features, but it is probably the better investment.  Open and free technologies are less likely to change on you.
