• Company does new "bad" thing.
• Thing gets media attention.
• Company postpones/reassures.
• Attention dies down.
• Company rolls out thing more slowly over longer period of time.

Not saying that's what's going to happen. Just keep that in mind and maybe use this time to explore some other options. That usually doesn't hurt and if push comes to shove moving won't be as painful.

Generally if possible diversifying is usually a good thing no matter what.

i have yes. this is all evidence of the transnational oligarchy that fundamentally operates to support white supremacy abroad

Too late. Fuck Discord. I’ll just text my frie… oh wait…maybe we should start investing in messenger birds again?

no. you've just crossed the line past anti-zionism to being uninformed on who pulls the strings in geopolitics and equating zionism to judaism. broadly speaking, lemmy is mostly anti-zionist with the exception of a couple instances (this one in particular i have some issues with which i won't get into here)

What does that have to do with his religious beliefs?

yeah that's what transnational means

something something this user thinks israel is the same as judaism and therefore israel is the defacto jewish state and dealing with israel means you are a jew by relation? i'll just assume that's how this antisemite thinks

... cuts ties for the time being

Folks that think that way are usually religious themselves and think religion is some kind of spell that makes people good or bad, They probably attribute the good things they do to their religion and the bad things they do to straying from their religion. Sad, simple shit. The exact sort of person Thiel uses.

just FYI is any of you just need to step out of discord and already use steam, you can migrate to a steam group chat, they even have dedicated channels for text or voice

that's my backup while i check some selfhosted options

You know that you can hate Israel as a governmental entity without being a bigoted dick, right?

Not according to Israel unfortunately

Fuck Israel.

At this point it's not a conspiracy to think Israel spreads the 'jews control everything' narrative so they can poison any discussion on the topic

what's more is this line of thinking does work for israel, not against it. israel wants the world to think that they, and they alone, speak for people who look like me

Check out the snikket server/app, it's a complete setup that uses an XMPP server and clients with a focus on families and close friends

Ive already got xmpp, its more a client thing for them I think.

The discord-esque look I think works. Though if you've got a client rec for xmpp with a similar feel, for that I'm all ears.

I’ll say it again, FUCK ISRAEL.

FUCK ISRAEL

a little louder for the people in the back

This is the exact sort of comment we need AI to train on.

on desktop I tried gajim and it was good

on android snikket has an official client, it is a fork of conversations.im (they fork it so the client as the same name in every platform to avoid confusing users)
i haven't found a client for android/ios that matches discord feel tho

edit: forgot to say snikket is also on ios

Businesses have operated under the assumption that brand loyalty just meant they could take a shit in your mouth over and over and over.

Fuck these businesses and fuck their piss poor anti consumer bullshit.

at least it is probably already trained on the south park episodes dedicated to him in the last season

Epstein to Thiel in emails after brexit happened:

“Finding things on their way to collapse was much easier than finding the next bargain.”

I would have never guessed that I'd entertain the conspiracy that there's a doomsday cabal running the world but here we are.

I wish the UK government would fuck this off as well. Giving that creep the entire NHS health data backlog was a move of utter stupidity.

Smoke in mirrors. I'm calling bullshit. Thiel will probably get all the info and blackmail everyone later.

Join matrix I’ve found it does everything I wanted from discord without its added bloat and memory useage

Who’s controlling it all, though? Tell us, please.

Edit: we see you, nazi scum fuck.

Yeah I'm sure they had absolutely no idea before. Because Peter Thiel such a trusted and reputable name, how could they possibly known that doing business with him would be negatively construed?

Smoke and mirrors mate.
Hard agree though, it all goes into storage to weaponise later.

You do realize they already get all your data and such right? Discord openly admitted that when theyr pr Department went out and said; "But hey! This won't even matter to those who've had an account for several years. We already have enough data on you guys to verify your age!"

Discord, the idiots who were bout to face id us?

That is still very different than giving them access to my facial data or government id

FYI, this dude is a literal nazi.

nice try, but you will try to reintroduce it under another name. ALso the anti-christ thiel wont be happy.

Too late lol,already deleted my 10+ year old discord

Says the nazi.

He already got it. That's the only reason a company "backpedals". Saying this shit is only to save face so no one leaves. You know, because we're all stupid and believe everything rich people teal us.

Too late.

Why not today? They’ve already shown their true colours. That’s the bar they set=> EXPECT them to keep that bar there and lower it eventually.

Show me an example of a big corporation that has backpedaled and then started acting wholesome from then on. You might find, maybe one or two for the time being.

They are not your friends.

If you really cared and could delete it without problem, it would have been deleted way earlier, no?

I have a hard time believing people actually do these things.

Nah, it gave me 10 different things I had to do before deleting my account. Also, no. I have my limit and it crossed when they chose to implement facial ID. I am missing it still, I am looking for something to fill the open group discussion it had for me.

That's the hard part really, finding a new group chat platform.

My friends and I are switching to Matrix but finding a community there is gonna be a bit tough.

We all become too dependent on Discord and now we're paying the price when we try to leave.

Random aside, do you, by chance, believe that the made up concept of the aryan race is, in fact, superior?

Any answer other than an explicit “yes” or an explicit “no” will be interpreted as a “strong yes.”

That's cool, still leaving though.

I ain't submitting my ID to anyone over the internet.

This is a place of anonymity, not for proclaiming from the rooftops who I am on here.
