Anon doesn't know, Discord fails to include a libre software license text file. We do not control it, anti-libre software.

I think they are saying that discord is bad because it is not Free software, that it is bad because it is a commercial service

And I'm not looking forwards to the effort it is going to take to get my friends to migrate away from discord. It was hard enough to get them on discord in the first place.

Anon's big mistake was not being the President of the Gulf of America.

Discord usually just uses some bullshit allegations when they feel like kicking accounts down

Anon forgot to put their interpersonal relationships in a RAID array

I created a Discord account so I could try Midjourney and my account got blocked within a few hours. I use a VPN most of the time, can't remember if I was with Discord so might have had the same IP as another user. Didn't bother to set up another account.

They block most VPNs outright.

All the more reason to not use Discord imo.

Mullvad works.

I have a Discord but I hear a lot about how easily you can get banned, largely on the whims of the people running a single server, so I've always been a bit reluctant to use it.

Also, I find it genuinely disturbing how much information all these companies have about you and your stuff.

I'm worried that for reporting all those servers and people, I will get a permaban as a thank you.

Whats the draw of discord? I don't get why people go on there. It's boring af and you gotta talk with people while you play video games. I'll go on if I absolutely have to for a group, but I avoid if I can.

Whats the draw of discord?

Chat plus streaming as a freemium service that has its hooks in with the networking effect.

Probably the biggest draw of Discord is how many people use Discord. But past that, it fills a bunch of real time social media roles well.

As a case in point, I'm in a game of Pathfinder Kingmaker with friends, and Discord does a good job of letting players join virtually, sharing screens, rolling dice, keeping a log of the different chats, pinning the links to the Kingdom management files, and providing a search function to find historical info.

This doesn't sound "user friendly" at all to me
