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

I've already read your whole comment. It's not comparing apples to oranges.

[i_jedi@lemmy.today]

That's another Russian facebook, yes.

Telegram I feel is a mix between Facebook and Twitter. It doesn't really push far enough in either direction to be a copy paste clone.

discord. the platform that has a huge pedophile problem? the platform that's sympathetic towards conservative shitheads?

that discord?

[bodeplothole@lemmy.world]

Does signal have voice chat?

[chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world]

It has voice and video. It's more a messaging app than something like a Discord alternative. It is secure SMS-like experience with audio and video calls.

I use it a lot and donate to Signal. It's awesome.

[bodeplothole@lemmy.world]

I use it for messaging, but I hadn't seen anything similar to discord. I was hoping you knew something I didn't. Lol.

I'm not sure anyone could read that as sarcasm. You gotta add a /s

[inkstainthebat@pawb.social]

Maybe things changed but last I checked Matrix kinda sucked. I'm not sure how it's any more secure than Discord but it has worse quality for voice and video calls, so it just seems like Discord but worse, although no microtransactions is nice, although although there aren't any account decoration in the slightest either so

[inkstainthebat@pawb.social]

I thought it stood for DiskDump

[mickus@sh.itjust.works]

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

I will not verify my face to these transphobic pigs

This is not good.... not sure if I will continue to use Discord.

[wraithgear@lemmy.world]

what? if you have something to add please do. i do not see the benefit of federation in my voip

[toynbee@lemmy.world]

A wise coworker of mine once told me that, when it comes to what Unix commands stand for, you kind of make it up as you go.

In this case, though, looks like we were both wrong.

[cris16228@lemmy.today]

Unless they offer discord $2

If they force me to verify, I'm done

[ameancow@lemmy.world]

Like I said, they don't actually need to. You're going to have your own silent buddy watching everything you do!

[stopforgettingit@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Any active Matrix spaces anyone can recommend to me? I joined a few from the public directory but they all seem dead.

[thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

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?

federated platforms

[underpantsweevil@lemmy.world]

Federation is easy. BlueSky is federated, ffs. You think Jack Dorsey would be shy about selling his Twitter knock-off a second time?
