            @woozle @netskaven @verge because people who tell others to move their communities offer no suggestions as to suitable alternatives?

            @feorag

            Even if they're now spoiled rotten by llms, search engines still work well enough to look for them. If your community is to move, it has to be a collective decision and they should do some work too.

                  Welp...

                  Time to drop Nitro, write a sternly worded email and look for a replacement for Discord.

                  Maybe set up a private Team Speak server or something. Or maybe go back to good old XMPP...

                                  @netskaven The problem is all the people who will be like "well, that's annoying, but I guess we have to do it" and won't make any effort to move their communities.

                                  (...and it's easier to say "well then, you don't need that community if they're going to be like that" than it is to actually do it, in many cases.)

                                        @verge "Beginning in March, all accounts will have a β€˜teen-appropriate experience by default.’"

                                        Who determines what a "teen experience" is, and this is what folk have been saying when protesting this ridiculous age verification thing: it affects everybody and is a privacy issue for everyone, which is a bigger deal than the pretended "what about the children?" They will now be collecting data on children as they grow up.

                                        @CStamp @verge The deep and universal concern for the welfare of children juxtaposed with the piss-warm response to Epstein really makes one want to burn things down.

                                          @CStamp @verge The deep and universal concern for the welfare of children juxtaposed with the piss-warm response to Epstein really makes one want to burn things down.

                                          @su_liam @verge These people don't care about the welfare of children. They only care about control and exploitation. 😞
