Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face

I am of the opinion that any project that uses Discord for support, I just immediately ignore.
So mad at retro tink for this...

Bud, if you put that platter back together after I snipped it, you deserve every bit of data you get off it, 1000%
It's not that hard though. There are companies that offer data recovery as a service. If the value of the data on those drives exceeds the cost of those services then it becomes worth it to fish one of the drives out of the dumpster and take it there.

You can selfhost TS6 now? O:

Does anyone know any good tools/methods for archiving entire servers/all your DMs?
I used this one before, worked great.

How do you do voice calls/voice group calls in Matrix?
In element there’s a button on top of the chat. I press that and it’s calling.

It's way too complicated for tech illiterate people.
It really is no different than discord. You create an account, download the client, log in and that’s that. You don’t have to self host it or use any instance that isn’t the main instance. Just go to matrix.org and sign up.

I mean, I share the complaint of Discord having tons of unindexable knowledge locked away in it, but forums are not good replacement for my friend group. So yeah we kinda want a Discord alternative specifically.
Wire exists.
Obviously the problem isn't you and your friends, the problems is services that use discord like it's a forum, dispatcharr for example "oh do you want support? Join our discord". Fine, I'll figure it out myself.
My group of friends, like yours, we have a discord server with 9 channels, more than half aren't used, and one of the channels is to share links.

This is a very specialized job, your avg joe is not going to do it. Also, in the many years I've been in IT, I've never even seen a video of a platter reconstructed and get data off it.

Forums are great for being forums. Real-time instant messaging, voice chat, video chat, and screen sharing are all a very different use-case. They’re two entirely separate products, and comparing them is apples and oranges. People are looking to replace Discord with Discord-like services, because forums don’t fucking do what Discord does.
The big problem (and the reason everyone seems to compare the two) is that Discord started eating forums, as companies realized it was easier to create a Discord server instead of creating (and hosting, and maintaining) a support forum. And that’s a perfectly valid complaint. But that doesn’t mean forums are a valid replacement for Discord.
He is talking about forums because the main issue with discord is that it's cut from the rest of the internet so nothing is indexed and a lot of platforms and services use discord like a forum (it isn't).
No one wants our conversations indexed, and discord shouldn't be a forum.

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

I'll gladly scan a face. I just happen to look exactly like Gale Dekarios
Dan Bongino!

They got scared when a full revolution started in discord channels.
Anyone have a FOSS with screen share / group service?

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

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.

Bye, bitch! Discord has sucked for a while anyway...

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.

The general comment and title is simply untrue. They will require verification in cases of known adult or censored content, and in NSFW channels and servers. "Regular" content and spaces are untouched.
That said, I give it 6-10 months before it's required for all users regardless of content access.

Interested as well.
I need to move some D&D games to another platform.

Discord’s updated privacy approach is “teen-by-default,” the company said in an announcement today. This means that, starting in March, all users on Discord will have their accounts partially restricted to the experience you’d get if you were under the age of 13.
I'm fine with that. I don't need porn on Discord.
