  I assumed they were already doing that, after all the IPO is coming do they will be doing all they can to make money and avoid risk. Admitting it however shows they are desperate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord walks back age verification fears for most users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They didn’t walk back shit, they upped the stakes by saying they use your chats to analyse your age. That’s just as bad.

  I’ve heard element, the common server software and even the protocol itself are also simply meh as well … That’s not a great start… And the name alone is a huge problem for adoption

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨European Commission Trials Matrix to Replace Microsoft Teams⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve always heard matrix was so so at best. So this seems unwise.

  Terrible video. PS5 sold well as it has tons of games and a reasonable price. Switch 2 doesn’t have either yet. Microsoft marked Xbox for death with it’s stupid 30 percent profit push. Done.
