Because if you didn't expect this path when you signed up you were naive.
Now everyone complains about it but for people who had already been paying attention: this was par for the course. Of course this was going to be the outcome. Why should I be happy that everyone fell for the promises of a for-profit private company again?
Like why do you think we are on Lemmy for fucks sake? Is it not for the same reasons??
How many times do we have to be fucked by private corporations for people to learn they don't care about us?
But every time its all "but they have a better feature set so its okay that they might enshittify in the long-run!" Literally same shit is being said about Bluesky over Mastodon right now.
The problem being, there aren't many alternatives around for discord. And even the ones that exist have issues of their own. Mostly relating to use base and entry barrier, in the case of the item source alternatives.
No, literally the problem is most people would rather give in and use a sleek corporate option every time.
No matter how many times they get fucked by doing that.
It's a choice to keep getting fucked.
Lololol y'all are insane.
I've been using discord for free for like 8 years now. But now I can only share 10mb files and I'M FUCKED 🤣
So much entitlement.
Example one, this ^ shit-for-brains. People like him are how we end up with Discord, when alternatives like Skype have better file and screen sharing and are completely free. Because discord is fashionable. It’s where his equally brainless friends “game.”
No one is preventing you from using Skype. You are unhinged over discord 🤣.
Incredibly weird.
You didn't even come close to answering the question. So I'll ask again.
How were you harmed by Discord?
That wooshing sound you hear over your head is you willfully missing the point entirely.
