@verge Please leave Discord, you should have left it years ago. I stopped using Discord 2+ years ago, never returned.
Also, don't keep documentation on Matrix, Discord, etc. Put it on a wiki or docs website, FFS.

Yeah, usually self-owns of this magnitude only happen after being bought out by Yahoo.

@verge "Beginning in March, all accounts will have a โteen-appropriate experience by default.โ"
Who determines what a "teen experience" is, and this is what folk have been saying when protesting this ridiculous age verification thing: it affects everybody and is a privacy issue for everyone, which is a bigger deal than the pretended "what about the children?" They will now be collecting data on children as they grow up.

@verge Just another step towards chipping all people living in US, and tracking and monitoring them with Starlink using xAI. Keep capitulating, and this WILL be our future. No doubt.

โWeโre not doing biometric scanning [or] facial recognition. Weโre doing facial estimation."Ok, that actually made me laugh

@verge how do you do, fellow kids .gif

@verge never understood why people use this garbage tier service. I used it for a brief spell some years ago - absolutely hated everything about it. Hard to find info - crap organization, lame monetizing scheme. Total trash. This should be the needle that breaks the camels back for many.
15 years ago Discord had a very good thin client set-up that was great for streaming, and great for video-calls, but unfortunately the enshittification has kicked in.
So fat-client and so slow, their website is.

@verge Glad I never became dependent on this shitty IRC knockoff

@woozle @netskaven @verge because people who tell others to move their communities offer no suggestions as to suitable alternatives?
Even if they're now spoiled rotten by llms, search engines still work well enough to look for them. If your community is to move, it has to be a collective decision and they should do some work too.
