DMs are one of Matrix's main features
They don't really work like Discord DMs... Maybe that has changed since I last used Element though.
idk what you mean by that... you can send messages or files to eachother, just like on discord. What else is there?
They aren't in a separate section as far as I remember. And you couldn't have Group DMs.
There's a setting to put them into seperate sections and aside from that, Element isn't the only Matrix client. And for group DMs you can just make a group chat.
