Yep. Grabbed mine a few years ago because of the writing on the wall. I’ll treat it like those old school hardback encyclopedias.

I find it also helps the cost is the same as old Nitro was which is pretty affordable IMO.
- Comment on Discord walks back age verification fears for most users 2 weeks ago:
Agree headline is misleading. “Walking Back” implies reversing course, that is not happening.
Plus we all know how great AI age verification is. Big empty “reassurance” there.

One of my friends’ husbands brought it up, so good old word of mouth.
I did notice I wasn’t able to get logged in last night, though the night before I was able to make an account without issue. I wonder if they got a hug of death like Stoat did.

I got the self hosted version up and it looks like it’s a much older version than their current iteration which was a kick in the teeth. Nothing discouraging quite like “Well you can self host if you don’t mind a worse version of the product”. Like my dudes I’m trying to take some pressure off of your server…

Fluxer apparently has that on their roadmap. https://blog.fluxer.app/roadmap-2026/
As part of #3, I’d also like to add the ability to publish forums to the open web. That way, people can discover, archive, and access discussions without logging in.

- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 4 weeks ago:
I could be wrong but I think this change forces everyone to use subscription only, not per X.
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 4 weeks ago:
Not that good, the backlash was immense and if I remember right, people were dropping patreon subs over it.
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 4 weeks ago:
They already caved.
On Wednesday, Patreon said Apple has renewed its requirement that all Patreon creators must move to subscription billing. The deadline to do so is November 1, 2026.

Not to mention the other two discord clones I can remember off the top of my head. Guilded (Owned by Roblox IIRC?) and
RevoltStoat, which I never hear anyone talk about, especially after their name change. - Comment on Meet Roomy: An Open-Source Discord Alternative for the Decentralized Web 4 weeks ago:
