Typical chinese botnet, normalfags not gonna care anyway
Kevin Cooper
Last time I was invited to a discord, it was just some high schooler nihlist shitheads sharing anime pics and voice chatting, one of them wanted to die because he was a virgin at 16 or something stupid like that.
Everyone stuck around because the mod was a mentally ill neet who had recently gotten into crossdressing and calling himself a girl (male), and would post disgusting trap pics pretty much all day.
He would constantly bring up how he was homeschooled and he's been cooped up in his house since middle school and it really showed. I got kicked when i didn't show up for a few days and he called me a "fithly normie" because I wasn't a neet.
Xavier Green
Discord is literally all the most cancerous parts of IRC but with more image sharing. Just when you think IRC drama is dead it shows up on another platform.
Dominic Hernandez
>Sup Forums >not being a crossdressing NEET
Brayden Williams
Hosted my own ts server at home for over a decade, so I can do whatever the fuck we want.
Bentley Nelson
Discord has to be the most vile platform right now
When a girl joins a chat for example, all the autist start trying to roast each other and make each other look bad to look for internet chicks and everyone's constantly trying to acquire chat social status and be cool, it's pathetic
Huh this is awfully similar to my experience with Discord. I guess it is that common.
Jayden Collins
Does Discord IP ban? Because I see no real reason why I should give a damn about TOS when I can just create a new account...
Kevin Miller
>tfw u join an online chat and start thinking you're normal
John Phillips
I know you can get shadowbanned from being reinvited to a room you were banned from, it'll just say "this invite has expired sorry".
Daniel Clark
Right, but it's still an account-based ban, so who gives a rat's ass?
Anthony Thompson
you don't need an account to use discord. in fact you don't need an account to use Sup Forums either you disgusting subhuman weeaboo attention whore faggot.
Jason White
>you have to verify your account to join this server
James Hill
>don't do illegal stuff >don't do stuff that puts us at risk of lawsuits
shocking
Juan Cruz

Jack Murphy
also I just decided to check the subreddit for this shit and the frontpage is filled to the brim with >this was promised eons ago, when is it being added and people going fucking bananas over these new rules because they're upset about their ERPbays getting hammered
Noah Taylor
>"I have a hentai server and these rules really conflict with the community I've made. My server had a "you don't want to see it you don't come policy" so we never had any problems. I think the ban on loli & shota is a also stupid because it's just drawings and doesn't hurt anyone. I think these new rules should be taken down or heavily unenforced." wew holy shit
Wyatt Morgan
Still better than skype
Charles Thompson
I didn't had that experience o.o
Logan Johnson
But why would you use discord for anything like that anyway? They keep fucking logs of everything you say and type, and they parse it all and link it to you personally and sell that data to data brokers for money.
It's the absolute worst thing to use if you're going to be doing anything remotely questionable.
Robert Fisher
Zero surprise. That's why we setup our own voice server.
Colton Hill
>playing CS while on discord >"bomb has been planted" >hear knocking on the door
Josiah Long
Double trips of truth. Checked.
Lucas Allen
Discord is nothing but an ERP and attentionwhoring platform anyhow, thanks to being able to quickly link images, discussions get flooded by attentionwhoring traps and people spamming ahego "ironically"
Michael Hall
When roasties get on discord they get ignored by me. But normies can't contain themselves...
Eli Martin
>Be kid >Parents are pearl-clutching buzzkills >Grow to adulthood >Kids are now the pearl-clutching buzzkills
this it's free for lots of people because discord sells stickers so they don't have to ask money for the software
Aaron Rogers
>Does Discord IP might be your ip or your hardware fingerprint or your imei if you use discord on a phone
Dominic Wilson
Why are more people not using Riot/Matrix yet? Better than discord in every way imaginable. Free/open source, federated, end-to-end encrypted (like OTR, but built into the protocol). Riot is the browser app for matrix. matrix.org/
Oliver Powell
how will they know what kind of images are shared if they say that they are a privacy company?
Elijah Ortiz
>More complex >No advertising >Arguably uglier >Missing emoji menu >Missing emoji reacts >Missing custom emojis >Missing proper message editing I've started using Riot/Matrix and I'm loving it, but let's be honest, if you try to bring a Discord baby to Matrix they're just going to list off all the stuff I said above and then declare "Discord just werks".
Side note: Have you tested the group voice chat? How does it compare to Discord? I haven't gotten around to it yet.
Michael James
I have not used the voice chat yet. Ok yeah I get what you are saying about discord babbys, I just asked why more people are not using it. I think the kind of tards who would list what you said are not the majority of Sup Forums users.
Thomas Kelly
>I think the kind of tards who would list what you said are not the majority of Sup Forums users.
And your assumption is wrong and you are grossly mistaken
just look at the gpu and cpu bullshit
Jack Cook
Yeah, they're not. I think it's just a lack of advertising, I only learnt of Matrix like a week ago because somebody was shilling it on here. Before that I'd never even heard of Riot or Matrix, despite the fact that Riot has been called Riot for the better part of a year and existed as Vector for even longer (not sure how long, but Matrix has been around for three years).
Aaron Hall
nobody cares
stop posting this fake news
Levi Walker
We need to talk about it more so more Anons know and build up a network effect. I know some of the general threads use discord, it would be good if they could switch to Riot.
Daniel Carter
what are some good non botnet alternatives to discord? something with voice chat text chat and the ability to share/embed images or other files but actually has some sort of userbase already?
Nathaniel Bell
Scroll up a few posts. Riot.IM. There is also good old Tox.
Dominic Cooper
I didn't know Sup Forums had a discord.
Levi Myers
>Make your own server for friends >Post whatever you fucking want in there because Discord will never find out unless someone reports you or your server
The new rules are nothing. They will only be used if people post stuff where it shouldn't be posted. So if you go into some random server and start posting porn or other stuff listed in the new changes, you're a fucking retard.
Matthew Hall
This has a chilling effect. Next it will be hate speech.
Samuel Johnson
Then don't fucking use discord Holy shit why the fuck would you speak about how you love hitler on a service that RECORDS EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND PARSES IT AND THEN SELLS THIS DATA
Camden Reed
Checked.
Kayden Nguyen
I'm not sure what you are concerned about.
You can still say whatever you like on your own server, if some baby doesn't like it, then you kick him, problem solved.
This is like going on to some company forum and complaining you can't say you hate niggers and that you got banned.
Jonathan Gonzalez
How do they intend to enforce these rules in a private community where no one reports each other?
Camden Cook
Only PMs can be reported, Discord used to state that they were implementing server reporting but it's vanished from their website.
Either way, it's spyware.
Kayden Sullivan
The future of our culture, the very fabric of society, is at stake here. Imageboards will not be around forever, imo. It is important to ensure that whatever comes next will preserve our freedoms. That means laying a framework now.
Lincoln Reed
What I'm getting from everyone's complaints about the community: you retards are actually joining public servers that aren't just your circle of friends. Why?
Cooper Howard
>KYS is a stupid acronym Sure is.
Juan Fisher
> where no one reports each other? All you need is one rat to fuck this up.
Brayden Green
some of us don't have friends user
Levi Perez
everything is stupid and racist and misogynistic and patriarchy and ableism and shit
Kevin Brown
No, user.
Anthony Martinez
yes it is you fucking nazi rascista fasicsta rapista
Thomas Anderson
More like pedophiles and Sup Forumstards btfo, they need to be gassed anyways.
Cooper Moore
Good fucking riddance, maybe this will finally decrease the autism levels in society and make all you neetscum off yourselves.
Nicholas Wright
Literally none of this affects me. Maybe you guys shouldn't act like monkeys.
Christian Sullivan
Matrix standard and irc appservice are what I live on.
You can use matrix or irc like go for your life Decentralised shit is good, unlike the trash in OP
Brandon Howard
You'll sound like an absolute retard there.

WTF I hate discord now!

Hunter Edwards
Nothing has to get reported. Discord can run sentiment analysis, porn detection filter and speech recognition on everything that passes through it and then determine where to investigate further.
Michael Collins
Discord can monitor everything at any level of privacy.
Nolan Moore
it even knows the applications that are running on your computer >that's how game detection works >only if you actually install their web app on your pc
Noah Richardson
I don't think you even have to install that disguised browser. Discord could just sniff on Steam and elsewhere and get a list of games owned and is currently being played just by using nick or email.
Lucas Myers
How does it feel discordfags that IRC is still the best way to chat?
Samuel Jackson
Good thing I don't have my email provided my nick is generic too
Lucas Allen
IRC would be better for normies if chathistory was widely used
it's in ircv3 spec, but it's not available everwhere
Blake Mitchell
How the fuck do emoji servers let you use emojis globally for free? I'm tired of freeloading onto server for emojis just to shitpost and I'd rather not pay 50 bucks a year.
Aiden Murphy
riot.im has emojis for free, everything is free
Dylan Smith
>no guro >no loli time to migrate to irc

All my friends are already on Discord. I was just wondering if I could find a way to shitpost with our shitty emojis on other servers.

I'm not sure if every Discord here is like that, but I think I was on that Discord too.
Angel Bennett
Generational trends are cyclical.
Cooper Reyes
I always see people complaining about Discord but I have no idea what you all are using it for. I'm only in one Discord server for a 14 year old PC game and nothing especially bad is going on there.
Dylan Flores
Everyday I see these threads I remember that Sup Forums is just a bunch of people that hate anything remotely popular that also works as intended.
Like, every thread it's "DISCORD BTFO, BOTNET, SPYWARE, IT'S OVER, DEAD AF" while pretty much everyone that I know, has changed from TeamSpeak to Discord cos asking for IPs, setting up rooms and passwords, and the useless chat wasn't as attractive.
Kayden Wilson
>He would constantly bring up how he was homeschooled and he's been cooped up in his house since middle school and it really showed Now I'm sure I was there. Thanks God I was kicked.
Cooper Collins
People hate discord because it's a privacy disrespecting centralised service that forces their beliefs upon you. They also hate it because it's a non-free js monstrosity.
