@sayonaraminasan I'm not trying to prove anything and there's no reason for you to be so aggressively defensive. Nobody's attacking you and there's nothing you need to prove to anyone. I've merely had a different experience from you, at least not until the last couple of years. That said, I agree that recently it's been awful.
I still don't know what you mean by being organised poorly, though. How should a chat program be organised that is different from what discord has done?
@StarkRG don't know and don't care lol. I am not a software developer.

@sayonaraminasan You don't know why you said the thing you said? And you must care, as it's a complaint you made, it doesn't make any sense for you to have said it and not care.
Am I done with what? You said a thing, I asked for clarification, describing my own experience for context, and you seem to have taken that personally somehow. Again, you don't need to be aggressive to communicate, you're not under attack, this is just a conversation.

@StarkRG I think I have entertained you enough. Good day. Another reply results in a block my good sir

@verge Ciao, Discord

@verge what exactly is the problem with this feature? How I understand, discord ist still accessible without any ID check, only adult content will be locked behind a verification wall, which isn’t something bad I think. Other platforms like reddit should do so as well, just asking for age isn’t really a working strategy
-
@verge What is "full access"?
Shouldn't there be an age cap there instead? Like no one over 16?
F queer and neurodivergent kids then I guess. Or those abused at home.

@project1enigma Don't forget to warm up before you stretch like that.
Sure, it may not be quite the smorgasbord for creeps that Roblox is, but you're fooling yourself if you think it ain't loaded with them. If you're going to ID people it should be to keep the adults out.
Though admittedly that is simply idealistic.

@verge In a month? They have already started rolling this shit out...
-
@feorag Yes, and the dearth of easy choices for alternatives is also a problem.
There's Revolt, which is pretty darn close (but do you want to tie your community to yet another 3rd party server or else figure out how to self-host, which does not appear easy), and there's Matrix (which is not exactly a drop-in replacement but can give a similar experience if appropriately configured, and that's not easy either)...
@woozle @feorag @netskaven @verge
Another issue is that it's not "Revolt" anymore, apparently the name was to revolting and they renamed to "Stoat".But it's still not end-to-end encrypted and still cannot federate so Matrix is pretty much the only valid alternative which can actually solve the shortcomings that cause the current Discord situation.

@strawhousepig @verge adult content channels and a couple of functionalities most peoplel don't use. Also the verification will be done by those methods if other won't do. The title is very misleading.
