Also delete your account: https://justdeleteme.xyz/#discord
Make sure to delete the account first.
Account deletion will not delete your messages, which you must do manually or by following this tutorial to ask messages deletion: https://khcrysalis.dev/mass-deletion/ (Take 24 hours or more to fully remove messages). NOTE: Only not-accessible messages will be removed, meaning you need to leave every servers you’re on and close all of your DMs before submitting your demand. If you’re a server owner, you’ll need to either delete the server, or transfer ownership for account deletion to succeed. Account deletion takes 15 days on average (You can restore your account in this time).
There’s no reddit auto-delete/overwrite thing for discord?
there’s undiscord.
Huh thanks for the advice, I wonder whether they’ll actually let non-EU citizens quote GDPR for message deletion, surely they know what country I am from, I personally just wrote a discord bot to delete my messages in the servers I’m most active in since conincidently that’s also where I’m admin.
The non-accessible requirement is confusing since pretty sure requesting your message data only gives you the messages from the servers you still have access to?
Missing pt 2 install element.
about to do the same when it hits me with that. it kind of sucks because there’s some communities that I’ll lose contact with, including my IPTV service.
Why wait? Start actively working out solutions alternatives. You can’t take care of everything at once but you gotta play offense.
there is no solution if those communities don’t take an issue with discord’s terms, just removing yourself from them
Stop acting like an NPC and show them the issue.
the concept of calling someone an NPC
Did that just earlier today. No issues so far.
Is there a new "default"platform everyone is moving to? I’m kind of surprised there isn’t an open source discord clone that comes with e2e encryption. I’m not tech savvy enough to understand the challenges involved I’m sure.
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think a Discord clone would need e2e encryption. Some large Discord servers have hundreds of thousands of users. I just think that if you want a small private communication channel, something like a Signal group would work better.
You’re probably right. The only reason I would want that is because there are always leaks and data harvesting
The obvious alternative would be Jami
My money’s on fluxer. I got a good vibe with him.
Ehhh
River on FreeNet has more potential to be what people actually need if people actually develop for it
Don’t get me wrong I’ve set up shop on all of the alternatives I have found so far but they’re frankly all… Meh. That includes Fluxer
Something about Fluxer’s communications so far gives me hibijibis though I’m unable to put my finger on why exactly. I’m getting Guilded.gg vibes for whatever reason
I’ve seen Stoat thrown around, I think the best swap right now is to matrix though.
No. Matrix is totally not the same vibe.
Stoat is great, but they need to release voice to self hosted still.
I’ve been using Element for a bit and IMHO it’s a pretty similar vibe
Yeah I’ve tried both. Stoat looks good and seems like the best option for similar organization but matrix seems better in terms of privacy. If matrix wasn’t so clumsy it would be hands down the best option.
It is so fucking clumsy. I hate it.
Fluxer seems pretty good.
A friend recently sent me this there seem to be plenty to try out
This is false. For Stoat voice is not available to self hosted still, and the primary channel is not available.
I’ve tried most of these. A lot seem more geared towards slack alternatives or more like work chat type things. Voice chat is critical and some lack it or have it tacked on. Teamspeak is the opposite which text chat is tacked on. The closest alts right now are stoat, fluxer and root. Fluxer and stoat and open source, root is VC funded. I’m pushing for fluxer personally. But he is getting hug of death at the moment.
This is perfect to show people how to deal with even minor enshitification.
