Discord isn’t exactly known for generous file-sharing limits, still, the messaging app offered a 25MB limit to free users. The company has now updated its support page to reflect the upload limit for free users has been lowered to 10MB.

It's a big lie. Why not offer the option to delete automatically after 24h if 15mb extra is so much storage?

Or is it about bandwidth? Why no automatic compression on desktop? Oh wait, that feature existed in the past was scrapped. They think you're fools.

Huh, I wonder how enshitified it has to get before I stop seeing discord on FOSS projects.

It begins lol.

I guess locking basic features behind a paywall didn't work for them after all, eh?

It was a matter of time honestly

As long as cattle keeps using these white products, there will always be a merchant to sell their data.

We clearly have poorly educated population that can't be bothered with anything besides blind consumption of whatever is trendy.

Plastic clothes, goyslop and data harvesting apps is essentially the condition of the modern wage slave and they appear to be satisfied.

Here we see the Common Incel in his natural habitat, trolling for reactions in his perpetually online state of being. Nature.

goyslop

You gotta be fucking kidding me with this antisemitic shit.

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I've never heard this word in my life and I somehow knew it was antisemitic?

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago

The "goy" is the giveaway. I had to google it to be sure, but seriously, what the fuck?

I recommend reporting the comment

Definitely not the kind of shit that should be welcome in this community

Also (after looking it up) I'm pretty sure that "goy" is a term used by jewish people to refer to non-jewish people. So in this case I think they're saying that it is "non-jewish trash" by referring to it as "goyslop".

I could be wrong though, they're pretty incoherent and it's definitely not the kind of comment reply I wanted to see when I woke up from my nap.

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah, already reported it.

And yeah, "goyim" is anyone non-Jewish, so the implication is Jews control the world and they only give out the barest minimum of sustenance to goyim known as "goyslop."

Like the amount of time and energy people put into these fucking slurs is ridiculous.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah gotcha

On a related tangent, I think my least favorite thing about my instance is that I only see the upvotes for that terrible comment. Which it has entirely too many of.

Honestly the amount of terrible comments and posts like that I see makes me want to switch to an instance with downvotes so that I can see that such shot isn't popular.

[–] tourist@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If it brings you any solace, Mr Raised-by-4chan is getting absolutely thundercunted with downvotes.

Haven't seen that many in a long while.

High schooler Reading comprehension spotted.

Melt down about one term that you didn't like and ignore the message lol

Either way my content speak for itsel, you could first do some basic diligence before spazzing out and trying to imply intent that ain't there.

We really so deserve the government we got with this genius

Rheee

Sorry bro, you're the one unironically using antisemitic dogwhistles, as if you can't get the same point across without them.

This is one of those things where the concept is entirely appropriate and accurate, except for that one minor issue....

Except it's not the Jews, it's the WASPs and whatever weird Catholic sect/cult that Justice Barret was raised in...okay, and yes, there's probably some Jews in the mix as well.

Because what I just described is the main demographic groups of the .01%

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Nah, they call them "white apps" and so since they are coming from a place of racism against whites, they feel it's totally appropriate and okay to use a term like goyslop. It's a shitty word to use and claiming it's okay because you are actually racist against whites is stupid as fuck. That is still using antisemitic dog whistles. There are other ways to describe the same concept like "fast food slop."

They think other people can't read and don't realize it still makes them a stupid racist.

Well, it is better than 8, but still sad.

Discord continues down it's path to total enshittification, which is exactly what I told everyone would happen when this fucking dogshit app got pushed on me around 2018 or so.

It's a private company with a profit motive. Fucking shocker that it enshittifies. /s

Fucking dipshit gamers not knowing any better.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (6 children)

What an overreaction. Also FYI the free file limit was 8MB two years ago before they raised the limit to 25MB, so if anything it's gotten better.

Ok but why are you so angry about it?

I’ve been using it for years and haven’t had to pay a dime.

How have they harmed you with their free app?

Revolt is the only feature-rich swap in option.
