YES! This is AMAZING! 🎉
Keep pushing against abusive practices, and keep fighting for your privacy rights!
IT WORKS! ✊🔒

Edit: Just to be clear, I still encourage everyone to move to better platforms and delete your Discord accounts (even if there was no age verification at all). Discord isn't a privacy-respectful platform.
But this small victory means we should keep pushing for better privacy practices, everywhere.
This means they are listening. This means you have the power to make things better, for yourself and for others.
Celebrate that. And keep pushing back.
Too late. I just got an email that my account was deleted. They lost me. Which is fine. Wasn't really using Discord anymore.

Hit their bottom pockets and the "necessary thing" quickly becomes "optional".
Amazing what bleeding money and an impending IPO will do.

@wolfinpdx Still a privacy win for you too! 👍 There are much better platforms than Discord around, even without accounting for age verification.

My 9yr sub ran out yesterday, and I don't think I'll ever renew it. They've lost my trust already.

This is what happens when you hit them where it hurts, in the nu... I mean wallet. That is the only way they listen. Discord has a long ways to go before it is redeemed, but this is a win for the good guys!

@Em0nM4stodon All my friends moved to Signal. I assume Discord is just gonna pull a that thing most companies do and wait til they think everyone has forgotten before repeating their b.s.

@Em0nM4stodon "Age Assurance" Oh, so that's the new euphemism for spying.

@Em0nM4stodon this buys us time, but they will try again. Probably split it into smaller steps to reduce the pushback or smth.
And if they do an IPO and sell, then... all bets are off anyway. Enshittification will take them one way or another.

@Em0nM4stodon They're still planning to rolll this out so I would push for alternatives in the meantime.

@Em0nM4stodon it helps also that all these verification companies seem to be run by clueless muppets.

Even though I rarely used it, I like to think that I helped in my tiny little middle finger way.

@Em0nM4stodon And also, still leave the platform. Make an example of it.

@Em0nM4stodon Until they explicitly say they're scrapping ID/face verification of age for everyone, I say we keep the fire under their asses going. Tell the Stoat and Matrix and Mattermost and all the other platforms that people are going to that they should use this time to prepare for the second influx that'll come in 3-6 months when Discord does the thing they still plan on doing. Those who have already swapped should keep at it. If Discord wants to die on this hill, let them.

@disorderlyf @Em0nM4stodon at what point do you walk away, enough is enough? Folks are so dang conditioned to just take whatever these companies dish out and just roll with the inconveniences for the sake of keeping the status quo.

@siguza @Em0nM4stodon Hopefully, "time" is an ingredient we can use well.

@FraEmme pensavo capitasse solo col mio medico. Essendo molto pignolo e prolisso, pensavo fosse un suo problema... probabilmente dipende dalla mancanza di molti medici di base

@oblomov I found a very small corner case where they’re useful /for me/, and admittedly of small or negative utility for the OP, when I want to use a post as the seed/context for a broader idea to my followers (where I might usually just boost my own reply) but where my comment simply isn’t useful to the OP (doesn’t answer the OP question, as an example)
In general, though, boosting my own comment in addition to the OP works better
