I know “lol anon has no friends” is le epic funny meme but by friends, they obviously meant their contacts.

I have a lot of people, I’d consider friends, that I only communicate with through discord. If I lost my account, I’d likely never hear from them again. Kinda get it.
TwanHE@lemmy.world 19 hours ago
Idk might just be talking about his online friend’s. But knowing 4chan maybe not

Never understood why anyone would want to pay 100$ a year for discord, the paid version doesnt give you that much imo
Trollception@sh.itjust.works 35 minutes ago
To support the developers and pay for a product you use all the time? Same reason you pay for any software/game.

Personally, Discord has facilitated a long distance relationship with my now wife, and nearly ten years of weekly TTRPG games. I don’t mind the cost because they cannot provide that service for free forever, and I think it’s worth it for what I get out of it.

you could also pay to host some shit like mumble.

Which is a good monetation system. Premium users barely get anything but still enough to pay, while free users can do pretty much everything too.

personally the $3 a month nitro is worth it for me, considering how much I use it. I know Lemmy hates anything capitalist but a coffee a month isnt that much

You don’t wanna pay $100 for a bunch of useless stickers and random features that don’t need to be in a chat program? Whaaaaaat? ^/s^

I pay $30 a year for Nitro Basic. It’s only $2.50 a month and worth it to me with how much I use it.

This is one of the bigger reasons I don’t want to use social media controlled by a corporation, it means they can choose to cut me off from people at their discretion, which will probably be based on what is convenient and easy for them.

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

That is kinda bullshit if they didn’t even see the content.
Arbiter@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I mean, seeing as it’s a 4chan greentext there’s probably some very important information being left out.

Entirely possible.

It doesn’t prove that they knew either. We have this thing called presumption of innocence.
DempstersBox@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Discord specifically has a skip to most recent post button, that i use frequently on the busier ones, because I’m not scrolling through two miles of unrelated nonsense and sub-convos to get to what’s currently relevant.
Am I guilty of thoughtcrime?
Soulg@ani.social 1 day ago
You know that some servers can have tens of thousands of people right?
TwilightKiddy@programming.dev 1 day ago
Presumption of innocence is a thing, you know?
In 2020 some small servers (50-200 people per server) got cover banned with all their users, mostly for political talk, as far as I’m aware.
I, personally, usually join such small servers while looking for lobby members in older games, I have a couple of them muted except for channels dedicated specifically to game lobbies. If someone starts an “illegal” talk in any other channel on one of these, why should I be held liable? Or am I suddenly obligated to hunt for pipe bomb recipes on any server I join?
Zozano@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Just because they’re part of the server doesn’t mean they knew it was there.
glitchdx@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.

On this topic: I currently have installed on my phone and computer: slack, zoom, MSTeams, element, discord, Facebook messenger and signal to communicate in various projects and friends. What is this madness?!
LH0ezVT@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
Add telegram, threema, another matrix client for that other server and WhatsApp for some old friends to it

AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
Same happened to me but with animal cruelty content or something. I tried to get the account back but turns out it was a “ban wave” so a lot of other people who got banned but were innocent were doing the same so discords services got overwhelmed by the appeals. Maybe they should have realized after that that this kinda banning is a horrible approach.
kane@femboys.biz 1 day ago
This is why people should be worried of using these massive services, luckily it was ‘only’ Discord (if this was your primary way to interact with friends, this can be a huge deal).
But imagine if it was your email account!
Getting a reputable provider, self hosting or using a decentralized option is paramount for your own sanity.

This made me thinking about Valve potentially banning my 19-old Steam account due to some error or a mistake 💀 I heard bad things about their customer support.
psud@aussie.zone 17 hours ago
There was that man who was all in on Google.
He had a telemedicine appointment for his son who had a problem with his penis. Dr asked him to send a close-up photo so he could diagnose the skin condition
So the guy takes the photo with his pixel phone and sends it
The phone automatically backs up the photo
Google’s AI says it’s child porn, his account is deleted and police are contacted
Police look into it and say “not porn, totally fine” but have to go to his house to tell him the was no problem because his phone was Google, his internet was Google fibre, his email was Gmail and his photo album was on Google and all that was irrevocably deleted

Currently having problems with GMail I lost my old phone (2fA) and no device was logged in so i could not access steam and like everything that requires that old mail
And my phone provider or postal service is stupid because i could not get a replacement sim after multiple tries which normally works
Googles account recovery policy is basically:
- 2fA
- recovery email
- create a new account x.x
I think the recovery mail option only gets unlocked after 6? months inactivity because ~3 months ago i did not have the option
Now after requesting a recovery i still have to wait a full month before they maybe give me a password reset to my moms mail
But steam support was nice. Managed to get the account by providing a product key i used a few months ago and was lucky enough not to have thrown the physical card away

Yea this is exactly why I don’t use 2FA
If the password is like 64 characters randomly generated by Keepass, the 2FA doesn’t matter.

I’m legitimately paranoid about this scenario, especially since I’m in a couple of ERP servers, and I was friends with ReploidRevo… yes THAT ReploidRevo, and never knew about what he did until after his downfall went viral.

HighFructoseLowStand@lemm.ee 19 hours ago
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 created a Discord account so I could try Midjourney. No idea why but my account blocked within a few hours. Didn’t bother to set up another one. Could do without that proprietary garbage frankly.

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.

Being able to enter and sit inside a call where your friends can see that a call is active and who is in call is a really nice feature. It completely negates having to ping a whole group that may or may not be available like with Skype.
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 10 hours ago
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.

I have no qualms about your getting banned for this.
You are who you associate with. For example: trump associates with Epstein. Should he not be banned from discord?
ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 hours ago
So, if anyone in this thread ever posts CP elsewhere on lemmy, or even here in this thread now that you’re already here, you think your acct should be wholly banned from lemmy because you are who you associate with?
easily3667@lemmus.org 21 hours ago
In your analogy this Lemmy thread and a discord group are the same. I disagree with this and would say the discord group would be more akin to joining a subreddit known for sharing that type of content.
I am of course not giving anon the benefit of the doubt because of who they are.

I still don’t understand the point of discord. I just deleted the app cause it was sooooo boring. The only social media I have is a perma banned reddit account (a few), snapchat (which I never use anymore as I have grown out of it and it has turned to absolute shit) and the lemmsters. Feeling good
