If it was ever about protecting children, we would ban cars first. As they are the biggest (or one of in most countries) killers of school children old enough to be even looking for porn or whatever.

It’s disgusting yeah. I try to avoid projects where Discord is their only news and/or support outlet.

They have acknowledged the offline messaging part. It does work in group chats and has E2EE there, but I think it’s something they are going to look into for servers. It’s closed source, so we are at the mercy of their few developers and cannot help. While I do trust them more than Discord, I would rather have an open solution, like Stoat/Fluxer, take off instead.

The only identifable information you should have to provide is the information you signed up with.

I’ve had a couple sites ask for id, but that wouldnt verify I own the account anymore than just me sending them the email from the same address I used to sign up with.

GDPR has a flaw iirc, where it allows this, I guess the UK version isnt any different.
