  Neither do I, but from other platforms it’s only a matter of time until you’re prompted for it. You join a server where someone has posted something NSFW before, or the server admin “to be safe” set it to adults only, or they just clamp down on the definition of adults only. At some point I fully expect it’ll force me to.

    I wonder if my MIL’s mugshot would be good enough.

  What about the model reading your messages

    Always assume anything you post outside of some messaging apps has hit the public domain and will be used, sold and targeted. This is scarcely a Discord-only problem.

  This probably will end up being the case for most people

    Until Discord starts classifying anything and everything as adult content, TikTok style. Can’t curse, can’t talk about any form of violence. Good look talking about most video games when you can’t say “gun”, “kill” or “die”.
