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.
You're not gonna threaten me you piece of shit.
This is the nothing will come of the Epstein files and nobody will be arrested because people are sheep.

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

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.

There's always a catch, if you disabled picrel (or your country is turbo retarded beyond repair like Turkey).
My Aussie friend hadn't gotten anything when they started forcing Age Verifications there and his account is 2019.

who is we lmao? that was a reddit teenager thing because they were afraid of being kicked out of gooning servers. nobody in the real world cared or even talked about it because it would have had zero impact on them.

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.

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.

how the fuck did this not happen with IRC
genuine question
>>
>>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.

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.
>>
>>
>>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.

because electron is fucking retarded and getting Discord to work on Linux is a headache due to the way Discord insists on their method of delivering updates on a platform where the user controls exactly when they want to

Why would I want to need a third party plugin? More shit that's tacked on, not properly integrated, and has to be maintained by someone who might stop at any moment.

I don't want to script anything, I want it to work out of the box with a click or two.
This mentality is why FOSS shitware always loses out to proper software.

because you're too fucking stupid. if it were up to you we'd have shitty GUIs where you have to tick boxes one by one in a 9001 element folder to select items instead of pressing CTRL-A or typing .* to select everything

Tell me guys. How the fuck do you keep contact with friends, family and even work related people without using spying bullshit like discord, whatsapp or Instagram? So many people would rather tell me to fuck off because I refuse to use whatsapp than just install something like signal to keep contact with me...
