Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t they got a massive leak for gov IDs last year? And they still pushing this bs?! Hello?
I will use AI image generation, such as “Thispersondoesnotexist”. They can have an imaginary face for their data brokers.
Cool. I’m getting off it so that they don’t think doing shit like this is okay
It sucks that many projects that I am interested in, such as Touhoumon Puppet Dance Encore and assorted hentai projects that are on the platform. For now, I put up with it - but I am very much hoping alternatives are adopted by creators.
They got scared when a full revolution started in discord channels.
Anyone have a FOSS with screen share / group service?
Interested as well.
I need to move some D&D games to another platform.
Bye, bitch! Discord has sucked for a while anyway…
Does anyone know any good tools/methods for archiving entire servers/all your DMs?
I used this one before, worked great. https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter
I guess I’m going to be a teenager again! If only it meant I could not go to work and spend 8 hours a day playing games.
According to this article they just blocking access to adult channels and content. You may still use discord but not be able to view adult chat groups, pictures and other content if you haven’t scanned your face or uploaded ID.
Seems fair to be honest. Children on Discord been exposed to adult content some which adults would be disgusted by. Not to count pedophilia en masse and seems to be uncontrollable. Discord was not supposed to be a tool for sharing porn anyway. Maybe it would bring some good into the situation.
I’m actually pretty happy that Discord is killing itself. Far too many people use it as an official platform for stuff like help forums.
Maybe lets go back to basic message boards that are actually searchable, etc.
Self-hosted options like Mumble also exist.
Self-hosted is a pain to get started with but as everything enshittifies if will only get more important.
As someone who doesn’t use the voice chat feature of Discord, I am always confused when people suggest things like Mumble as an alternative.
I am of the opinion that any project that uses Discord for support, I just immediately ignore.
So mad at retro tink for this…
I’m still salty about The Cutting Room Floor requiring you to log into their Discord to create an account for their website.
This is great news! Discord shooting itself in the foot is a net positive for the whole world.
Yeah, no. Companies don’t get to scan my face or ID. You know they are selling your data.
Yep, straight to Palantir.
In 10 years, when MAGA has everything locked down, and you complain about something online, they’ll put out a BOLO, and instantly, the entire network will start checking every camera for your face, and within a few minutes they will have a timeline on your movements for as far back as they want, including every time you enter or leave your house. If you aren’t in your house, they’ll find you out there somewhere, and immediately dispatch ICE Apes to find you, detain you, and send you to the nearest work camp, where you will be leased out as a slave to some corporation.
That’s Black Mirror Season X
this is making my ttrpg group actually consider letting me host stuff for them and I’m unironically thrilled… so like, matrix is the way, right? Or should I be looking at mumble or something?
I’m very interested in this question too. I tried Mumble but it looks like it does not support screen streaming which honestly is pretty good. 99% of my discord use since I stopped playing wow is just hanging around with 3 friends of mine and speaking about crap. We like to play or watch movies together and it’s nice to be able to share stuff.
Good Ole team speak
In us too? I’m not giving my license
Wait really? Wtfff
Big brother, is that you?
Anyone remember xFire? It was better 15 years ago than Discord ever was or will be.
…damn I miss that shit. They were litigated out of existence by a frivolous lawsuit from Yahoo. This is why we can’t have nice things.
Xfire was all we ever needed.
Dude xFire was my jam.
I remember leaving xFire handles in my forum signatures with a random anime picture. Those were the days…
