    I sure hope this is the end of Discord. Maybe only 10% of people will rage quit rather than show their ID, but if every group has one in 10 people they invite say “nah, that’s not happening” and everyone has to admit they’re probably in the right, it might make some difference.

    Oh hey, the obvious thing we all knew was going to happen, happened.

    Can’t wait for absolutely nothing to be done to prevent this from happening again, especially as they push to make this mandatory for all users…

      I’ve used it a couple times, what a dumpster fire of an app.

      Walked away years ago and refused to use it since.

        Same. It looks like it was made for one thing, with parts added over time to add functionality. If you were there from the start, using it regularly, it would be fine, but to jump in now…

    I suppose the next question is where will everyone go? If they wanted to keep kids safe this ain’t it because they’ll go somewhere else anyways. So it’s a lose/lose for everyone.

    Possibly a win for companies if they want to harvest data/sell it.

    So, after reading several sources on this, it sounds like it’s going to be harder to access furry hentai, which one shouldn’t be doing on Discord in the first place.

    That has never been a private space. You want E2EE for anything spicy.
