Hmmm. So how long before another AI is able to generate a good enough face to fool the age verification AI (or can it already)? Interesting three-legged race there.

This was a wtf moment for me. Even though Discord’s privacy isn’t the best, and even though it’s proprietary, Discord has been seemingly loyal to its user base, even doing cool stuff like offering a Linux version of the app. However, if this becomes mandatory, I will promptly leave, I am horrified that they have fallen this low.
If by linux version you mean completely broken electron web app I suppose youre right
if that happens to me and discord wants me to send selfies to my self,Am going to Matrix and maybe use my discord alt to take to my friends who dont wanna use matrix.

Does anybody have any suggestions for alternatives for chats?
I use it a lot for classes (students use them) and video games.

Oh shit, I gotta finish looking for that bot that will copy my discord channels and their content (pictures, links) to my matrix
I don’t see reporting on this from any reputable sources. If this were true, every major blog covering tech and gaming would be all over it. All I can find is random YouTube channels and nobody websites discussing it.
I’m not gonna pay it any attention until there’s reliable evidence they’re actually planning on doing this.
bye bye!
