The problem is to move the users over. People aren’t willing to change

I’m not surprised that they are against it but very surprised that they so blatantly expose their reasoning. If you don’t buy my product, it’s not good for me, therefore it is not a good idea 🤷

I’ve read the article several times, but still can’t understand why they have stopped.

They do say that they have had no pressure from the administration, and that it is a strategic move to cover wider issues that affect peoples’ lives. But honestly, cutting on presidential approval rate, to measure other opinions seems like a distraction

Agree! It basically says so in the first sentence of the article!

President Donald Trump has added another shiny award to his cabinet of trophies that have just been invented

This was such a comical read! It’s like reading a joke made into a serious article:

President Donald Trump has added another shiny award to his cabinet of trophies that have just been invented

"I’m thrilled to welcome to the White House the men and women who light our cities, and you know, you do things that people don’t even understand, so much, you do so much. You heat our homes, fuel our factories and turn natural resources into American riches and dreams. Our amazing coal miners.”

“I ended the war on coal,”

It is not the first time Trump has been the “inaugural recipient” of an award presented by those looking to curry his favor.

a bronze statue of a coal miner on the top and was engraved with “Undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal.”

Infantino also handed Trump “a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go,”

But unlike prison you get paid and you can ultimately just quit and find something else to do

It’s a sliding slope though. The initial reasoning is fair. But it will eventually spread to other features like (potentially) creating and owning servers or holding administrative and moderation roles

It’s the same with the chat control currently looking over EU. Nobody can say that they are against efforts to stop CSAM. The issue is that the efforts don’t limit themselves to fighting that. Likewise the age verification on Discord does not seem to be targeted or limited to certain content. They are leaving the door open to use it any way they want

We didn’t mean it like that…

Yeah the involvement of US politicians, billionaires and celebrities in the Epstein afair, clearly shows that it is a career killer to be mentioned in them 🤦

The real problem is, that the majority of users won’t change, and it’s the users that make Discord. There could be a much better alternative but if users are too lazy to change, it is worth nothing.

This is the case with Facebook messenger too. There are great alternatives, but it’s messenger that has the userbase

The problem is not the lack of alternatives but the lack of users using the alternatives

That’s a very manipulative title when the first paragraph is:

Donald Trump may have four months left to live and his brain is in decline, a health expert has claimed.

I need specifications…

Are water fountains the ones that point water upwards? Or generally any tap water?

This is what got us into this mess in the first place

I won’t even try to discuss this with you sorry.

It’s the enemy military right? It’s torture right?

I went through this dilemma too and actually talked with ente about it. It turns out that they did initially try to set it up in Europe as they are a global team, but the EU requirement for physical presence in the country was limiting for them.

They said that there were workarounds for this but decided on setting it up in the US because it was very straightforward with no workarounds or limitations

I like the way they are going with ente though and feel like it’s a fair price. The software works well too

The great thing is that it was Vance being booed and not the US athletes

The comment above is not about the EU but compares the news coverage in EU Vs in US
