      Just like what’s happening with TikTok, it’s likely that the same will happen with Discord, A mass uninstallation by users due to this new policy

      Probably not a collapse, just a spike in people window-shopping alternatives after a trust hit. We’ve seen this cycle before.

      This is all part of the corporate crony capitualtion to the authoritian shift in governments around the world. They want an end to the anonomity of the internet, this is about doxing anyone who uses the internet to express themselves. The tyrants in government can no longer accept faceless masses resisting them.

      They want to unmask anyone they can and make it harder for anyone to speak without facing persecution or governmental harrasment. In the next five years, every major online company is going to force this down our throats, the big boys like google and amazon are next. These smaller sites are trial balloons.

      The wild west of the internet is unacceptable to the people with money and political power. Make no mistake, they are coming for all of us, and nothing will stop them at this point.

      What do people use it for in the first place? I thought it was built for people to have a live chat to coordinate online gaming but I was never into online multiplayer games so I never downloaded it.

      There is no universe in which I will prioritize „Upload ID“ over „Delete Account“

      I just want Skype back. The one before Microsoft bought it and fucked it up.

      A simple Messenger with tidy 1:1 chat windows and screen sharing capabilities.

      How hard can it be? We had that 15 years ago. Why can’t we have it any more?

      I honestly don’t know how many people will just cave and sacrifice their privacy, I just know I won’t be one of them.

      searching for alternatives and actually migrating are completely different things. discord’s moat isn’t the software — it’s that every community you’re part of is already there. you’d need to convince entire friend groups, gaming guilds, and project teams to move simultaneously. people searched for „facebook alternatives“ a million times too and we all know how that went.

      Well, the clearest answer to that search would be: „PICTOCHAT AND/OR MIIVERSE“

      Seriously though, I don’t know where this is going to lead, but I recommend trying to cut back on social media in general and use that time for other activities.

      All these companies doing everything they can to squeeze every penny from their consumers and then being shocked when their product dies as a result.

      The current pushes from governments around the world pushing for age verification for various services will eventually spill over into every platform. It’ll become a never ending game of whack-a-mole.

      When most headlines ask a yes or no question, the answers is almost always „no“. This time, it’s a definite „YES“.

    23. yuusharo on

      No. Obviously.

      But you should start looking for alternatives. When the IPO hits, be prepared for vulture capitalists seeking to squeeze every bit of value and enshittify the hell out of it.

      I walked when they wanted my phone number.

      Scan my face to log in? lol…foh.

      The dopey part about it is, it won’t be difficult to circumvent. Borrowing a face and/or an ID is, child’s play.

      I feel like I’d settle for a reddit replacement while we’re at it. Same community, different owners.

      If you refuse to verify, how will that change the experience of using discord. I don’t use discord for porn. What is going to be restricted?

    29. JmattJmatt on

      Just use TeamSpeak, like the gold ole days before this spyware shit was released

    30. Critical-Bag2695 on

      Very interesting, how the discord censorship and surveillance of your massages was never an issue, but this is. Sheeple.

      I guess this is Roblox’s moment to shine (I imagine they also have the Face ID heh).
