Element is just a client, while Matrix is the chat protocol. But yeah, I have recently switched my discord server to a matrix instance and its been pretty great. Some pushback by users who didn't care about privacy or security, but overall the tech is solid. We didn't like that discord was moderating private chats and they don't offer any type of encryption.
