    If the pushback on social media doesn’t get Discord to drop these plans, then I’ll just have to delete the app.

    Not caving to another app asking for Personally Identifiable Information (PII) only for this same data to be leaked months to years later.

    Society will do everything to protect children aside from making better parents.

          Or just get bought out. Discord was supposed to be the answer to Twitch getting gobbled up. Then Microsoft gobbled Discord.

          Does anyone seriously believe there’s an indie third party social media site immune to a multi-million (possibly even billion) dollar buyout offer? One that won’t go the way of TikTok and be legislatively forced into sale?

    I only use the platform to manage my dodgy IPTV subscription. Presumably they’ll be ditching Discord as well once they realise that they need to provide ID.

    I had just joined a discord run by the devsfor a nsfw game. I do wonder what they’ll do? They haven’t made any announcements as of yet but many in the chat are of course unwilling to hand over their id
