    Look none of us like Peter Thiel but him being an investor in a company used by discord is barely a story

    The bigger story here IMO is that discord may be trying to move away from their home grown easily circumvented system, so get verified while you still can without compromising yourself.

      And everyone please stop using it as a forum for the love of God. I have no use for discord as a platform, but every damn FOSS program asking me to go there for troubleshooting is insanity.

                  They’re called Spaces on matrix clients. Server instances are the sites that they are hosted on. AFAIK you need to be logged in to bring up this cross-sever space search shown below: https://matrix.org/docs/chat_basics/public-rooms/#browsing-the-public-directory

                            Yes, I signed up for the Element app. However, the categories for exploring spaces didn’t appear for me.

                                    Fucking obviously duh, of course it does.

                                    Why does anybody give any kind of benefit of doubt to the class of wealthy rapists that run society and most of its institutions?

                                    They’re rapists.

                                    They’ll rape your money, your data, your attention, your energy, your time, anything they can either groom you into letting them take, or just take it by force.

                                    And/or, if you’re ā€˜lucky’, they’ll just literally rape you physically.

                                    These people are all violent sociopaths and need to be either euthanized or quarantined from society.

                                    Imagine SexPestiny.

                                    There ya go, thats all of these goddamned people.

                                    Machiavellian, manipulative, beyond amoral into just actually evil, not actually very smart, they just happen to have money.

                                      That’s certainly unfortunate that it isn’t giving you a useful error. I’m not sure why it says that. I tried creating an account there with a similar username to yours, and it was created no problem on the main movim.eu instance.

                                        Well a lot of those people are just fundamentally taught that anything Sky Daddy does quite literally is the very concept of good and just, and seem to be genuinely incapable of their own independent moral reasoning.

                                        I know because that is how I was raised, good thing I’m more curious and inquisitive than I am blindly faithful.

                                        We’ve got something around a third of the US that is ready and eager to install some kind of an overt theocracy, if you haven’t heard of the Seven Mountains movement/concept look it up.

                                        These people are fundamentally driven by irrational delusions and falsities and lies and obvious logical paradoxes, all plastered over with ā€˜faith’ that simply serves as a justification for hatred and bigotry.

                                        I know not all religious people are like this, many of them are much more reasonable.

                                        But we have ya’ll qaeda here at home, and they will destroy everything they do not understand if they are not countered.

                                          The fascist noose is tightening the world over thanks to proprietary big tech. We have to escape now while we can to open-source alternatives.

                                          Currently the best private (encrypted) and federated Discord alternative is Movim, which I highly recommend people switch to as soon as possible (the Dev is currently working on discord-like channels with rooms).

                                          For a more complete guide to swapping proprietary apps for safe open-source ones, I suggest referring to this post: https://slrpnk.net/post/23012609
