That just shows how pussy we are. If you're threatened you, don't simply lie down and wait for it to happen you strike back.

I uninstalled the desktop app when they announced their partnership with persona and haven't used the browser version since.
I keep it around in case my irl friends want to play something but so far that hasn't been the case.
Haven't used it in a couple months at least

they paused their rollout, and have walked back from insinuating full id collection to proclaiming 90% wont have to upload id- if that number gets to 100% boycotting discord would just be a nice vanity, not an important step imo

Age verification is still coming, retards. Discord wants to IPO, and it has no intention of letting anything stand in the way.

RIP to everyone who is forced to use Discord because of work or school.

>>108292285
Even if it wasn't 70% of users wouldn't even get it.
It's only for accounts past 2023/4 + you only have to do it to access NSFW channels in PUBLIC servers.
If you got a private server with friends or just use DMs this wouldn't affect you in any way, shape or form.
Discord already collects your data that much that they literally determine what you are off your games played from activity and if you connect Spotify / Steam + what you listen and have on those.

I boycotted discord in like 2017 when it became evident that troons would look at the entire chat history of "your" server (their server) if you said the nigger word or posted the wrong frog picture.

There's always a catch, if you disabled picrel (or your country is turbo retarded beyond repair like Turkey).

I don't have friends so I never used it in the first place.

What exactly changed? As soon as people will be greeted with a "please verify your age" sign, they'll leave again. Unless their new system allows mysteriously everyone to stay, it's just a delay.

Bridging always leads to such failures.
You have to commit to it fully or not at all. Or you have a fixed x weeks transition period.

Call me fucking Joe Lieberman, the seethiest seethe to ever seethe, or a Victorian Prude that should piss off back to 1854, but idgaf anymore. Discord should be fucking banned. Forget the stupid “verification” shit, it isn’t enough. It’ll never be enough. A full-out fucking ban is the only thing that can suffice. Let us go back to Skype or something, please. Even MSN Messenger would be better than that fucking website with it’s Toriel-looking ass logo and hideous layout that looks like something you’d see in Orwell’s 1984. We banned Alcohol back in the 1920s for less.
>>
I still use discord cause the changes don't affect me. All I need it for is chatting with friends and screen sharing. Don't need to give them an ID when I couldn't care less about viewing porn channels.

Jumped ship into the ocean and drowned in it or like, are you saying you found another boat? Because I want to leave discord, but where do I go? There's always a discord for everything these days, but not for other platforms.

i like fluxer, the ui is basically the same as discord and has some cool improvements.
though i do not like that i cannot selfhost it right now because the developers did not made a guide for it, i don't feel like diving into configs, code and trial and error just to set up a chat app.
maybe i'll just use the official instance, or wait for the guide.

Not just banned, their CEO should get arrested.
They are running a child grooming platform, they KNOW that there is troon child grooming and they defend it.

They don't have the excuse of "oh well, but we are just a platform" if they moderate hate speech and other not-illegal stuff.
If you can delete the stuff that you dislike, but that isn't illegal, you are capable to remove the illegal stuff as well.
But they don't do that, so they should be liable for it.

The tranny child grooming on discord is illegal.

About a year ago, I tried to log back into old discrd server.
Even though password was correct, discord threw shenanigans and wanted email confirm.

Go to login that email, which was terniary and Also haven't logged in over a year.

Google throws tantrum and wants to log in another account, also not logged in year.

I say screw that and go browse somewhere else.

Discord have been effectively boycotting me if anything.

>>108292252
Who tf comes to /g/ and uses discord unironically?
Also, who TF would verify their age anyway? It's not like you lose access to the service, you just lose useless features only a zoomer/alphoomer would care about.

Good for you, I quit using it the moment microslop anounced a possible buyout 5y ago.
Try cancelling your discord account btw.. I did, Then got an email after 2y claiming they would stop my account cause I did not login for 2y, then got a second email 2d later claiming the previous email was sent in err.

All the FOSS communities that actually switched to matrix, are on matrix, and i am not sure which one of those are still bridged and which aren't.

If you use Discord, you shouldn't be in /g/.
Everybody, who matters, left that platform five years ago.
>>
>>108299021
>how the fuck did this not happen with IRC
Roles.
Discords role system promotes in-groups and dick-sucking.
You are friends with the troon server owner? Get a fancy role with different colored name!

All other platforms have roles for moderation, while discord has roles for pure visibility and rewards.

I got rid of it problem is now I wonder how I'm gonna vc with mates when they wanna game. I could use steam I guess but not all of them have steam they use xbox and xbox store for windows.

I'm thinking stoat or element has anyone tried these?

It has to be an all in one gets the job done application as my mates are not even remotely tech savvy and simply will never use anything that isn't simple enough for a retarded person to use.

>>108295615
vidya games is just front store
it's all about private channels
>>
>>108300461
>It has to be an all in one
why?

Having a different application for chat than for voice and screenshare is much easier.
If you aren't tech savvy and never used either Mumble, Teamspeak or Discord, it will be Discord that is the hardest to get into.
Just look at Discords UI and realize how convoluted and dumb everything is.

Linuxtards are just hopeless, they don't understand that people would rather deal with things like age verification than the constant 24/7 annoyance of using an inferior product that doesn't do what they want it to do.

Same reason Linux market share on Discord is collapsing again: they tricked a lot of people into trying Linux due to MS shitting the bed, but all those people quickly realized that no matter how bad Windows gets it's not as bad as Linux.

Because IRC fucking sucked compared to Discord? As did TeamSpeak, Mumble, Vent, etc. At the very least alternatives need to be on par with Discord, but the only one that is close to being so is TeamSpeak which is developed by a bunch of boomers who think having to be in a voice channel to text chat is acceptable.
>B-BUT DISCORD SPIES ON YOU!
Software spying on me over the course of my entire life is unlikely to cause me as much inconvenience as shitty FOSS software will in a single week by being terrible at what it does.

If you don't like an IRC server, you can just go somewhere else.
Back in the day pojo and serebii all had IRC channels filled with kids just one /join away from warez and porn channels and generally it was understood "Hey, you little shits shouldn't be on the internet in the first place. If you're not responsible enough to stay out of those rooms, that's between you and your parents". Which is why the old internet was so fucking cool. You could go from talking about Pokemon in one channel to downloading most pirated games in another and there was zero repercussions or checks for doing so.

People keep acting like Technology only improves or gets more convenient, it hasn't. We live in a litany of walled gardens made to keep babies from using it who wouldn't be interested in our stuff anyway.
