    Forgot to mention that you have to give them your phone number. That one really pisses me off.

    Discord got problems… but none of those things I’ve encountered. Save for the

    And are you really going to complain about being shown the rules of the place before use? You got a point on notifications too but that’s it. Annoying, but easy to deal with (right click server, disable notifications, boom done that’s it.)

    The other shit I could be easily convinced you’re straight up making up.

    Forgot the part where you are sometimes FORCED to join some discord server, be it for downloading a mod just one time or troubleshoot something else. And then sometimes comes the part you listed.

    Yeah and it sucked for archival purposes then and it still sucks now and forums took its place and that’s still where serious people go to talk about their field, but somehow there’s some fields where people have forgotten that.

        That’s an issue with the cost of storage back then meaning that people needed external hosts, but these days if Reddit and Lemmy can self host then an equivalent forum could do it too.

      You aren’t “archiving” shit of this magnitude. Forums and hosts get the real letters and even the more permissive countries and hosts tend to have minimal issues taking action for these kinds of leaks. They are just as transient as chat rooms with a much bigger investment to run

      Which leave “dark web” sites that very much do exist but don’t get linked in news articles

    Even with logs they’re still a party because without threads it’s just questions getting twisted again and again and again without being able to refer the person to a previous part of the discussion where they could find all answers they need…
