Can we just use ai generated faces?
It may work for some but for the majority of applications I don’t believe it will work. And potentially might get your account deactivated, like with Facebook.
Time to delete that crap I guess

I think this may not be the best time for them to do that….
Users who aren’t verified as adults will not be able to access age-restricted servers and channels, won’t be able to speak in Discord’s livestream-like “stage” channels, and will see content filters for any content Discord detects as graphic or sensitive. They will also get warning prompts for friend requests from potentially unfamiliar users, and DMs from unfamiliar users will be automatically filtered into a separate inbox.
That shouldn’t be too restricting for people using discord to chat with their friends though.
I just set up my own Matrix server. Holy shit that was annoyingly hard.
I’m not even done. I have to set up Element Call for audio/video.
Pretty sure audio calling is also not fully encrypted? And still no game streaming with video or audio, last I checked.
I don’t really mind it not being e2e encrypted, since it’s hosted on my own hardware, but that’s good to know.
I have some discord bots for use with some self-hosted applications (changedetection, etc…). Does Matrix have similar functionality?
Yes. Plenty of examples if you search.
